Re: Near Perfect Edgd Weapon Reproductions
Hi Vedran...on the Damascus army dagger can you point out the reason for the blade being a repro,,for the collectors .....and what are the issues with The 1st Model Luftwaffee also that you just posted. These are the best 2 dagger repros I have seen,, and it would be educational to know the reasons for both of them. The Luft photo is only one photo and enlarging it does not show enough detail,, on the reason why. Thanks Regards Larry

Heres an SS Rohm inscription that hails from the Collective junk/ scam artist Pawel Novak collection. Whats wrong with this dagger is plenty.....#1 being the ever present sob stories that try to support this junk. He has named every possible German soldier that was in the war and linked it to his grandfather liberating it this dagger,, the details included,,from the shoe polished grip to the fake crossgrain on the blade and motto. Below are the photos.

Looking again it looks like the crossguard is hollow!! In fairness to it, it is the first white handled rad replica ive seen though
Re: Near Perfect Edgd Weapon Reproductions

Re: Near Perfect Edgd Weapon Reproductions

Re: Near Perfect Edgd Weapon Reproductions
I decided to switch this bayonet from "The Best of the Worst" in this section, it is not so poorly made.
Germany dress bayonet, made from original parts, post war parts, produced by R.E.
Most importantly - etching is postwar.
These bayonet can often deceive collectors, especially inexperienced.
