Hi Kris, all looks good so far. Nothing bad jumps out to me. (apart from the Luftwaffe dagger the wrong way around in the scabbard )
The SS dagger is a 33 pattern upgraded to a 36 patern scabbard.
Cheers, Ade.

Isnt the eagle on the KM the wrong way round?
While the bulk of what I see looks OK in the images, I would be careful myself with the M 1936, especially if it is a lot of money. That's because the noticeably dull appearance of the chain on the M1936 is giving me some concern when contrasted with the bright appearance of the other fittings. From what I have seen over the years in the U.S. - a number of these 'upgrades' are in fact postwar conglomerations of parts. FP
The SA (NSKK)looks to be a possible Rohm aswell (looks close to crossguard)
cheers Ronnie
I am also wondering what engraving is on the KM's blade. If it was the U-9, for example, it could be a considerable piece. As for the other blades, as Ade said, nothing shouting out red flags to me, at least. I would have to see many more photos of the uniform,however, to be able to make a decision on it. The sabres also-the SS in particular, of course, need more pics. But, so far-what I can see looks straight enough.
