Hi Dave, the 2nd pattern Luftwaffe dagger is a very nice design. I like them. That is a good clean example. Always good to have them with the knot and hangers.

Thanks for showing you other daggers too. I don't collect Italian items, but I have always like the MVSN dagger and have fancied owning one. I like the way they used to salute using them in the outstretched arm.

Cheers, Ade.

That looks like a very nice WKC. I see a lot of cross grain on the blade. Congrats. To me the blade is everything.

Love your Luft dagger,if you get tired of it I can find it a new home

Dave-
A beautiful example of the 2nd pattern Luftwaffe dagger. It is amazing how much of this material was shipped home, stored and forgotten. It appears you are well on the way to starting a nice edged weapons collection.

Indeed, 2nd model Lufwaffe daggers have a stunning look. If I'am lucky I may be able to add an Alcosso LW dagger to my collection, they have one for sale in an local auction house not far from where I live...

Alltough it may look batterd on the pictures this one is far from it. I've held it in my hand last week and I can assure you the blade is yust perfect...

[Davidh]
