Army Officer’s Dagger by F.W. Höller Solingen

This Army Officer's Dagger is in EXC+ condition. Model 1935. The Dagger has the maker mark on the blade: F.W. Höller Solingen. The total length is 39.8 cm.

Grip: The grip is a beautiful, white type and remains in fine condition. The pommel shows minor traces of carrying time on the upper end, but still has frosting around the edges. The 12 standing oak leaves are in perfect condition, all having hand enhancement.

Blade: The blade is in EXC+ condition - uncleaned. The reverse ricasso is etched with the early form of the Höller trademark, being slightly more detailed that later versions. It features a set of double ovals which contain the firm's name and location, “F.W. Höller Solingen”. Inside is the famous thermometer logo, with too many digits to ever count... or 17 on each side. The original blade washer is in place deep within the recesses of the guard.

Scabbard: This scabbard is straight and has excellent silver plating. The bands are particularly interesting as they depict oak leaves which have been completely hand rendered. These oak leaves have pebbled backgrounds and are made in a series of lines to resemble veins.
