Hello to all: new here, I'd read the Nick's thread about army dagger database and decide to put my two cents on it: A C. Gustav Spitzer, I liked it very much, it's a pity but the blade has been polished, you can see on the logo surface. Cheers!

Re: Daggers database
I'll have a go.
It looks to have the early type Spitzer logo and a very nice (and rare?) Pack type aluminium crossguard, but the pommel appears not to be made of the same alloy, is this unusual? Could it be a parts dagger or otherwise tampered with or did they come like this??

Re: Daggers database
A little worn for my taste, but I like it. I'm guessing that
the crossguard has been replaced to Re-Nazify
this dagger.........

Re: Daggers database
Its a parts dagger, blade is attached later, so is the pommel , hahaha

Hai to all:
Recently I have aquired an Army dagger and need a 2nd opinion about it, the grip is made of plastic material, no mark on blade. Sorry about photo quality.
TIA

Re: Daggers database
LOL!!
I have the same feelings as this is a parts dagger but I am reserved on the pommel not being authentic. Could be the photos or flash used. Regardless, I feel this is more of a put together,,recently. JMO.

Re: Daggers database
Hi to all here! Gerrit is right about the first post, When I bought it (on the net) the photos provided by the seller doesn't show the maker mark because is so erased that I can't notice it, when the dagger ariives I discover the mark and makes new photos of it. Of course I didn't change nothing in it, is in the same condicition that when arrived home.
best regards
