NSKK Dagger, AESCULAP, TUTTLINGEN

[Stevade]

Hi All,
Whilst here in the U.K. we are all in Self Isolation so I thought it’s a good time to check the old collection.
Here’s one I’ve had for quite some years, and it keeps the DANIEL PERES SA DAGGER company in the Cabinet.
Doesn’t look like it’s ever been apart, the tang has no spanner or grip marks, the Scabbard screws have not been turned.
Not a very Common Manufacturer.
This appears to be an Early 33 Dagger, again the fit of blade to xguard is faultless.
As seen in the Pictures the etch is a really nice dark crisp finish.

Hope you all enjoy the pictures, and as always comments appreciated.
Keep Safe.

Very Nice Stevade ...it appears this NSKK man was standing more while holding the grip of the dagger than driving...as the grip has had all its varnish worn off which with this Producer they laquered their grips more heavily than others.

Total great fit and love the pimples in the motto
Scabbard appears to be a Factory ordered type and not done by hand.

Nice to see the early long snap clip on this hanger.

Regards Larry
