Re: Social Welfare and DRK daggers
Hi drdata,
thanks for taking a look. the DRK hewer's were field carried by medics. the saw back was for cutting wood for splints. the chisel point was used for splitting wood for the splint. i'm not talking about splitting logs. but you could cut a sapling tree, and split it for a splint.
i thought there might be more comments on this one.
ya drdata, i think Horst could be a brother by another mother. and Hal too. lol.

Re: Social Welfare and DRK daggers
Hi Andrew, these are all great.
Hi Ronnie, I too wonder about the validity of the hanger holes theory to distinguish between branches, Social welfare verses DRK. I wonder if this came about due to period documentation or just collector lore?
Cheers, Ade.

Re: Social Welfare and DRK daggers
i am not too sure myself Ade, i remember reading about this somwhere, i will have a little look through my books and see if i can find out a bit more, or maybe one of the more advanced collectors can shed a little light on it, but as you say what started this "theory"??? interesting to find out,
cheers Ronnie
