A more of a dress appearance places the dagger hanging clip beneath the pocket compared to being carried on the service belt. That places it lower..and with the dagger itself being long to begin with will have some "SwingTime" to it.
The length of this dagger can almost be compared to the Luftwaffe DLV first type.
I would not mind to get hit in the " Nads" by one of these daggers if I presently owned one.

Hi Ronnie.. Good eyes
The man on the podium...I can see that his dagger retaining loop is unsnapped to the left. This tells me what ever he is using for a hanger..the retaining loop is present. Regards Larry

Sorry Larry I meant the one above the one you have re posted, next to the postcard back in post 10 (sorry for confusion)hope you understand my gibberish
cheers Ronnie
The guy on the podium..is none other than SA Leader Viktor Lutze ,, who took Rohms position after Rohms demise. The chain is a one of a kind only worn by him. The center ramp support is slimmer..than the standard SA highleaders center ramp.
Take note of the center ramp position..higher up closer to the upper scabbard fitting. It gives the illusion that the dagger is longer.
Below is a screaming example..and full view of the chain..including the ornate looking snap clip. Regards Larry
Included below is a close up photo as The Lutze Chained SA dagger resides in a private collection

Cheers Larry! fantastic picture of the dagger, sorry I really honestly have no clue of Victor Lutze face and names I will never remember,
cheers Ronnie
Compliments of our own WRF member and author Wilhelm Saris a rare look into an oddity of an SA Mann wearing his SA dagger without the snap clip attached to his "D: ring belt loop. The SA Mann has secured..the hanger itself through the "D" ring making the hanging rig some what permanent to his duty belt. Below are 2 photos and a close up of the Hanger oddity.

2 More from Wilhelm Saris...both photos representative of the NSKK the first photo being that of a wedding photo..take notice of the dagger of the NSKK mann who is in the center with his wife....a close eye will reveal that his 3pc hanging rig has the retaining loop securing the top of his dagger..whereas the NSKK mann on the far right..has his retaining loop unsnapped.
The next photo below are 2 NSKK men at a traffic stop..the NSKK mann next to the car shows his dagger with 3 pc hanger in full vertical position..with the early Type I ... "long nosed" "D" ring snap clip
