Another great contribution......I am entranced by the portepee...very incredible condition and the zig zig configuration above the knot is timeless. Minty Mint

Totally agree-the portapee makes this one shine special! For the same company that made paratrooper gravity knives, Weyersberg could make a wicked dagger as well!

Hi Danny...these distributor examples puts a different twist on collecting. Some parts are recognizable....and the detective work that goes into searching the identity of the other parts. In your opinion Danny...what are your thoughts on the identity of the blade..which a plain blade is not commonly seen? Regards Larry

I think the distributors bought their parts mostly from the same factory. All the navy daggers that I have seen with the mark of Adolf Braun are made of (mainly) Alcoso parts. It would make sense that the blade also came form the Alcoso factory. Maybe they ordered a plane blade to be able to put their distributor mark on the spot where you will normally find the Alcoso mark. I still have no explenation for the hammered eyelets, since this is not something seen on Alcoso scabbards. That's why this is such a facinating hobby. There is always something new to learn.
