SS Dagger [Early Model] with Hanger by Carl Eickhorn Solingen
SS [Schutzstaffel] Dagger in early Version. Modell 1933. This early SS Dagger is with the Maker Carl Eickhorn Solingen. The dagger is in EXC+ condition throughout.
Grip: This grip fits the crossguards. There are some indications of wear on this grip. The runes displays good enamel, and the silvering to the runes and double-circled borders nicely match. The grip eagle is the early, “High Necked” variety. All the details are visible throughout the bird's feathering, talons, wreath, and mobile swastika. This early dagger is equipped with nickel crossguards and tang nut. These guards are in good shape. The guards are still in good condition, showing an average amount of wear from use.
Blade: The blade of this example is still in mint condition. The motto Meine Ehre heißt Treue «My honor is loyalty» is crisp and deep. The reverse ricasso of the blade is matching-etched formed by the firm's name and location, “Carl Eickhorn Solingen”. The blade shoulders perfectly meet the lower crossguard contour.
Scabbard: The matching nickel scabbard mounts are in excellent condition.
