Franz Weinrank: A Rare Manufacturer from Vienna, Austria

The Franz Weinrank, Stahlwarenfabrik, was founded in Vienna, Austria. 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. In 1935, it received the RZM code M7/99, assigned for the production of political daggers. The location in Vienna makes it one of the few Austrian manufacturers that produced RZM-licensed daggers.

The firm produced approximately 1,000 SA service daggers (Sturmabteilung), rated with a rarity of 5/5 as extremely rare. These daggers bear the motto "Alles für Deutschland" and typically feature nickel-silver fittings. Other products include general steel goods.

The logo or trademark of Franz Weinrank is not detailed documented.

Today, the products of Franz Weinrank are coveted collectibles that embody the historical development of the Austrian 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.
