Robert Giersch: A Rare Manufacturer from Solingen
The Robert Giersch, Stahlwarenfabrik, was founded in Solingen. The exact founding year is unknown. The company specialized in steel goods production and expanded during the Nazi era to edged weapons, particularly SA service daggers [M1933]. The location in Solingen underscores the region's tradition as a center for blade production in Germany. Reichsgau (SA): Wm (Westmark).
The firm produced approximately 2,000 SA service daggers (Sturmabteilung), rated with a rarity of 3.5/5 as moderately rare. These daggers bear the motto "Alles für Deutschland" and typically feature nickel-silver fittings. Other products include general steel goods. No RZM code is mentioned.
The logo of Robert Giersch features the text „Rob. Giersch Solingen“ in a clear, elongated font, often surrounded by a thin encircling line, as depicted on the blades of the daggers. The design conveys a classic impression and was typically etched on blades.
Today, the products of Robert Giersch are coveted collectibles that embody the historical development of the Solingen manufacturer history in the edged weapons industry. The limited production and focus on Nazi weapons make them an important example of the Nazi era, ideal for an encyclopedia on blank weapons manufacturers. We are interested in purchasing products from this manufacturer.
