Lauterjung H. & F., Solingen

The H. & F. Lauterjung, Stahlwaffenfabrik, was founded in 1897 by the brothers Hugo and Friedrich Lauterjung in Solingen. The company specialized in steel goods production and expanded during the Nazi era to edged weapons, particularly SA service daggers and HJ knives. In 1935, it received the RZM code M7/6, assigned for the production of political daggers. The owner Hans Hugo Lauterjung continued the business. The location in Solingen underscores the region's tradition as a center for blade production in Germany.

The firm specialized in SA service daggers (Sturmabteilung), produced in an estimated quantity of about 2,000 pieces. These daggers are rated with a rarity of 4/5 as highly rare and valued by collectors, featuring the motto "Alles für Deutschland" and nickel-silver fittings. Other products include HJ knives with the motto "Blut und Ehre!" as well as various edged weapons.

The logo or trademark of H. & F. Lauterjung typically consisted of the text "H. & F. Lauterjung Solingen," often supplemented by the RZM mark. This simple trademark emphasized the manufacturer's functional orientation and made the products recognizable in the collector's scene.
