SA Dagger [Early Version] with Hanger by Hermann Konejung A.G. Solingen
Early SA service dagger of the Sturmabteilung (SA) from the production period 1933–1935, manufactured by Hermann Konejung A.G., Solingen. The lower crossguard bears the matching group mark “Nrh” for Niederrhein. Complete with SA leather hanger.
Grip: Brown wooden grip in early configuration. Fitted are the national eagle and, above it, the enameled SA emblem, both period-correct and clamped from the inside. Both crossguards are made of nickel. The lower crossguard is stamped on the reverse with the group mark “Nrh” for Niederrhein.
Blade: Double-edged, bright blade with preserved crossgrain. On the front is the SA motto in deep, angular etch: “Alles für Deutschland”. The reverse bears the maker’s mark “Hermann Konejung A.G. Solingen”. The blade shoulders fit cleanly and precisely against the lower crossguard.
Scabbard: Iron scabbard with brown blued finish. Straight scabbard without dents or bumps. Both fittings are made of nickel-plated sheet steel and are secured laterally with two screws each. The upper fitting carries the suspension ring for the hanger.
Hanger: Original, later-added SA leather hanger in brown leather. A functional snap fastener is present. The snap hook is marked RZM M5/71 OLC.
Historical Context: Early SA service dagger 1933–1935 of the Niederrhein group
The SA service dagger was introduced in 1933 as a traditional and representative weapon of the Sturmabteilung (SA). Early production examples from 1933 to 1935 are often characterized by quality materials, clearly etched mottos and solid workmanship overall. Today they belong to the classic collecting fields of historic German edged weapons.
An important feature of these early pieces is the group mark on the lower crossguard. The marking “Nrh” present here refers to the Niederrhein group. Such regional attributions are especially appreciated by collectors because they allow a more precise organizational classification of the dagger.
The maker Hermann Konejung A.G., Solingen belongs among the recognized producers of early SA daggers. Combined with the preserved crossgrain, the characteristic motto “Alles für Deutschland”, the brown-blued scabbard and the marked SA hanger, this forms a coherent and collector-attractive piece.
