Emil Voos Army dagger

[85ronnies]

Hello gang, just picked this up at Stockport fair on Saturday, a dealer had just bought part of a collection 15 mins prior, instantly fell in love with it when I seen it, has plenty of silvering on the fittings and scabbard, plated blade, and an unusual rare crossguard I believe, you can also see where the portepee has left a mark on the rear of it.
Nice crisp maker mark on the blade aswell.
The hangers have a W scratched on it, maybe one of the owners initials,
hope you like it as much as I do, again my photography does no justice to the dagger
cheers Ronnie

Beautiful!!! Love that it has its hanger! Always great to see. You can just imagine the officer removing it from the tunic clip.

That's a cracking dagger and the hangers just make it even better...if I had seen that at a fair I would have brought it as well

That's a beatiful army dagger by a maker that you don't see too often. You are right, the crossguard on this one is quite rare. I love the handwork on that eagle. I wouldn't mind having this one in my collection Great score
