    That dagger/letter opener is an absolute beauty Kevin.
    It is certainly the first one I have seen with the makers mark. (I have led a very sheltered life!!)
    The quality looks to be far superior to the one I just had delivered.
    Now if they all looked similar to the one you have posted I would certainly think about branching out.

    All the best

    Seen a lot of those so called salesman examples and i confirm kevins statement, they do come with gripwire.
    SMF is a common maker for these beauty's and Kevins example is a lovely one!

    Yours has a worn blade and misses the gripwire but is still a lovely Original piece!
    Lovely grip colour and thx for sharing

    Thank you once again for all your replies they were all very helpful.
    After mentioning about the cased letter opener I decided to hunt it down in my boxes.
    I found it and Kevin, Ger it does have the SMF logo.

    I have started a new thred here:
    Cased Luftwaffe 2nd Pattern Denazified

    I am hoping that you may be able to have an input again.

    Best regards
