Army Officer’s Dagger [M1935] with Portepee

This Army Officer's Dagger is in EXC+ condition. Model 1935. The total length is 39.5 cm.

Grip: The grip of the dagger is an off-white color, most likely a plaster filled type. The pommel does not look to have ever been cleaned. The rim is crisp, as are the twelve standing oak leaves that run around the circumference. The crossguard has a very fine, generic “A” eagle, totally free of wear and very crisp throughout. The ferrule is the type used with these generic mounts. The original 42cm portepee is on the dagger, still set in the period tie.

Blade: The blade is in fine condition. The original, leather blade buffer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard is straight as an arrow. It retains its crisp pebbled panel design. There are frosted remains in the protected areas around the carrying bands. The bands are very fine with each overlapping oak leaf reflecting hand-enhancing. The thick-style throat is retained by one screw.
