Is this HJ knife worth it

[mopedman]

I need to know if you guys think this Hitler youth knife is worth the price the guy is asking for it. He is asking 125 for it. He said he has had it for years. Any knowledge or input would be appreciated. I am new to collecting German stuff.

Here is a link to a pic.

See that rim around the scabbard? Real ones don't have that.

[mopedman]

OK so do you think the hole knife is fake or just scabbard?

[mopedman]

Well thanks for the help I decided to wait for the next one. I am in the market for one and this one popped up a Craigslist. But I thought I would ask about it before buying

Hi mopedman


It's best you asked here first. This is NOT an original Hitler Jügend dagger but a modern reproduction...

Yes, unfortunately this knife is famour reproduction. Approx. price is 40-50 EUR.

The guy had a Luftwaffe dagger for sale too. But I would gess if the HJ is fake so is the Luftwaffe dagger.

Hi, and welcome to the forum! I am glad you have already been saved some money

Don't dismiss the Luftwaffe dagger too soon. Please show it here in a new thread if you have pics.

Cheers, Ade.

For a repro HJ knife? Even 40E is way too much, I would expect more like 20E max.
