SS Dagger [Late Model] by RZM M7/83 (Rich. Plümacher Solingen)

Late-production SS Service Dagger, manufactured under the RZM system with blade code RZM M7/83, attributed to the Solingen maker Rich. Plümacher. This example represents a typical late-war variant of the SS dagger, produced according to standardized RZM specifications.

Grip: Wooden grip fitted with the SS runes emblem and the national eagle, both made of aluminum and crimped from the inside. The crossguards are manufactured from zinc alloy and finished with a silvered surface. The grip sits firmly and shows no looseness.

Blade: Bright, polished blade in excellent condition, free of rust or nicks. The obverse bears the deeply etched SS motto “Meine Ehre heißt Treue”, executed in the sharp, angular style typical of RZM production. The reverse is marked with the RZM code “M7/83” for Rich. Plümacher, Solingen. The blade tip is fully intact and unshortened. Blade shoulders fit precisely to the lower crossguard.

Scabbard: Steel scabbard with intact black lacquer finish. Both scabbard fittings are made of nickel-plated sheet steel and are cleanly preserved. Each fitting is secured by two side screws. Overall, the scabbard remains straight and undamaged.

Historical Background: Late SS Service Dagger & RZM Production

The SS Service Dagger was introduced as a symbolic sidearm of the Schutzstaffel (SS). From 1937 onward, production was increasingly standardized and controlled by the RZM (Reichszeugmeisterei).

Late examples such as this dagger were produced using zinc alloy fittings and standardized components, reflecting wartime material constraints. The RZM code M7/83 identifies the maker Rich. Plümacher, Solingen.

Despite simplified production methods, late SS daggers remain highly collectible, especially when preserved in clean, original condition with an intact blade, crisp motto etching, and complete scabbard.
