SS Full Röhm Honor Dagger [Ernst Röhm] by Robert Klaas Solingen

Rare SS honour dagger from the early production period 1933–1935 with fully preserved Ernst Röhm dedication. The dagger was made by Robert Klaas, Solingen and is offered together with a matching early hanger. A distinctive and especially desirable collector’s piece from the early SS edged weapon field.

Grip: Black wooden grip in typical early configuration. Fitted are the SS runes and the nickel national eagle, both original and period-correct, clamped from the inside. The crossguards and fittings are made of nickel silver. Internally, both crossguards are marked “St & St”; the lower crossguard also bears the Roman numeral “III” for Berlin.

Blade: Bright blade with preserved crossgrain. On the front is the deeply etched SS motto “Meine Ehre heißt Treue”. The reverse shows the full dedication “In herzlicher Kameradschaft Ernst Röhm”. Below appears the maker’s mark “Robert Klaas Solingen”. The blade shoulders close cleanly against the lower crossguard. Light scabbard rubbing is present; near the lower crossguard there is slight surface rust.

Scabbard: Straight iron scabbard with original blued finish. The two scabbard fittings of nickel silver are each secured laterally with two screws. The throat and tip show an evenly matured surface and match the early overall appearance of the dagger very well.

Hanger: Black leather hanger of early production with a functioning snap fastener. Early unmarked variation. Buckle and fastener are made of nickel-plated steel and complement the dagger in an authentic manner.
