Ss dagger genuine?
Hello chaps

Looks like an original rzm piece with a repainted scabbard and re-darkened blade motto (the blade appears to have been heavily cleaned/buffed). Some of the fitting plating may have also been "improved?"
Given the issues already pointed out, I would pass on it.
Cheers, Ade.

Isn't the groves on the crossguards a bit shallow for being SS, or maybe it's just the lifting of the plating that makes it look like it.
Thanks very much for all your help chaps, I will pass on this one!
The depth of the grooves isn't an SS/SA bifurcation, rather just a variation between vintages and makers.
Ok, I was thinking of the Thuringia crossguards, weren't those exclusive to SA:s? But you are right, the groves on different SS:s certainly differs in depth as well.by Title King

Not really exclusive but what was available in necessity at the time of production. Producers outsourced to other producers when in need and when the price was right.
