SS dagger
Dear gents,
I purchased this SS dagger. Can I have your opinion about if its real and if so when its produced?
IMO. At first glance, the dagger itself looks original from the early period 1933/1934 but the blade is heavily cleaned! and the overall condition is not the best I have seen.
I have my concurns about the scabbard I cant say if this belong to this dagger.
1.The scabbard is painted While we anodized expected from this early period, but it could be a repainted early one because the fittings are nickel silver like the crossguards but where are the fitting screws?
2.It can also be a late scabbard where are the nickel silver fittings mounted on that can explain why the screws are missing
because the screw holes do not match.
Regards Rafael
Nothing wrong with the dagger except for the very bad condition.
Scabbard indeed has issues.
I hope you didn't payed to much for this dagger.
Better post here first before you buy.
This is not a dagger that's gonna sell fast in the future.
Payed 599€ ink shipping. Not to bad for a SS dagger even if some parts are in rough condition. Most SS daggers sells exstremly fast as I have seen
Okay, that is still a fair price I guess.by Berlin45
But believe me when I say that you better should raise more funds to buy a excellent to mint conditioned dagger.
You gonna be more happy with it afterwords.
Yes I agree with you Krisse. But a ss dagger in mint conditipn cost from 3000$ and up...
I know what you mean Kris but that,s not for everyone the objective, for many collectors is something tangible from that time enough and the condition comes on a 2nd or 3rd place
Yes, I know. But I mean that also a bit as a challenge.
The SS daggers that I own were bought after a lot of patiance of collecting the funds. Atm I'm doing the same to buy another splendid piece.
Mr Berlin..what was the price of the dagger?
