Luftwaffe Dagger [1937] with Hangers and Portepee by Eickhorn Solingen

This 2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger, produced by Eickhorn and is in EXC+ condition overall. Model 1937. The total length is 42.5 cm. The Dagger has the maker mark on the blade: Eickhorn Solingen.

Grip: The grip of this dagger is a beauty, being a shade of light orange and is tightly wrapped with wire, grip is damaged in the lower area. The pommel is a great example. The oak leaves which surround the swastikas are extremely well rendered and hand engraved right up to the smooth center ridge line. The eagle retain full detail to the head, feathering and talons.

Blade: The blade is in EXC+ condition throughout. This blade is stamped on the reverse with the Eickhorn trademark having the firm's initials and location beneath, “Original Eickhorn Solingen”. The leather washer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard is also a fine example. It is coated with an airplane gray finish. It has outstanding crisp pebbled panels and the bands are a fine aluminum having excellent detail to the oak leaves. The throat is slightly thick and is retained by two screws.
