It gave me a strange feeling, so here we are, anyone have any idea if this is original or not?
Original Dagger Hanger?

Hi Vegar..these are 2nd model Luftwaffe dagger hangers...but not sure of the authenticity as i have seen some high quality fakes of this type reproduced. I will move this to the Luftwaffe dagger sub forum..and the keen eyes of the Luft collectors will precisely tell you if it is good. I am seeing injection mold points on the back of the hanging clip..and not sure of them at all. Hang around...a few Luft gents will be along shortly. Regards Larry

Woopsy, didn't realize this was LW hanger, so thanks for moving it.
Just noticed, the back of the clips(Holding the fabric together) look very crudely made, or is that just me?
Best Regards

Hi, there are a lot of superb quality luftwaffe dagger hangers in today´s market. I can´t tell you if your hanger is authentic, maybe nice warm carpet is OK, but I don´t see details of hangersSorry, I´m just kidding - from this photo is almost impossible to say if hanger is good, so you have to post better photos on proper daylight of all parts or I can´t help you. But also I add some photos of REPRODUCTION hangers, which are similar, but different in clip... so maybe you can compare these photos with your hanger and then you say, if hangers is original
I hope it helps to you...
Best regards Peter

Woopsy..must be facebook vanacular ..as that word does not exist in TR collecting. just joking..and could not resist.
