re: Luftwaffe 1st model, later alluminium type
Nice looking dagger but I wouldn't call it late war. The 2nd pattern Luftwaffe came out in 1937. I guess you could call it a late pre war dagger.

i mean late war: it has alu fittings instead of the silver plated fittings used on the pre war manufactored ones.

re: Luftwaffe 1st model, later alluminium type
The dagger itself looks like a nice one. With government (Luftwaffe) property markings, that I personally happen to like and consider a plus.
But if a book is being used as a reference that says that aluminum is late - simply put the author is wrong. Late manufacture has a zinc base that is plated to disguise the zinc. Also, all manufacture of dress blades was terminated in early 1942, which by my reckoning is not late war. FP
