Collecting SA/SS daggers

[d103097s]

Got a quick question. Which book is the best at detailing SA/SS daggers for authenticity? I believe I want to get Collecting the Edged Weapons of the Third Reich by Johnson, but which volume has the best information specifically for SA/SS daggers (SA would be first choice if I had to choose a focus). Thanks gentlemen and have a great day!

Hi David, there are several good books out there:

Exploring The Dress Daggers Of The German SS by Tom Whitmann

and

two here on the SS & SA daggers:

Dienstdolch - Infos von Sammlern für Sammler - Startseite

Cheers, Ade.

Not having much luck with that German site (do have Google translate even). I assume I have to email him for ordering information or is there a direct link to the SA book? Also, is it in German or English text? Thanks again everyone.

They are in German. But they are easy enought understand when combined with the pics.

Cheers, Ade.
