Ernst Rohm Dagger - opinions

Article about: The Eickhorn factory was the only one who worked with benchmark numbers, so if you see a benched crossguard you will know its an eickhorn and would be attached on a Eickhorn dagger only! So

    Default Ernst Rohm Dagger - opinions

    Hi everyone,

    This dagger is up for auction in Sweden right now, and I'd like to have some opinions.
    I have some "problems" myself with it.

    The Gau Mark is Nrh - to my knowledge F.Dick never delivered daggers to this Gau.
    The "m" in Rohm looks a bit different to the ones I have seen before.
    The hanger has an RZM mark which must mean it does not belong to the dagger originally.

    Well?
    What do the experts say?

    Best Regards
    Chris

    Hi Chris ... It is not known for the SA gruppe "Nrh" to be distributed at all by this producer... But never say never..... In these photos though the poor grip fit to the crossguard also supports that it was not designated to go there. The curvature of the wood is very noticeable and does not belong to this dagger at all. A rarity in itself is the across the blade variant logo... Not sure of the etch do to the dirty looking blade. Some parts of the etch are weak . The scabbard is Late RZM type. Mixed parts with a questionable motto if better photos could be afforded a better opinion could be said. This dagger is parts and would rather not trust my money to an auction house in the condition this dagger is in or reputation of an auction house if any. Regards Larry

    Larry is spot on!
    Parts dagger all the way, they even spoiled some acid below the Rohm dedication near the cutting edge when they postwar etched it.
    Its a clean etch, no damage at all on a garbage like blade..Always a bad sign.

    Bad all the way.

    That´s a very interesting observation Gerrit, about the spilled acid.
    I might make a visit to the auction house and look "for real" on it.

    As said more than adequately above=a complete mish-mashed parts dagger abomination with a fake inscription.

    I think it's been established that this dagger is a parts dagger. I have a question though. In one of the pictures you can see he bench stamp "3" on the crossguard. Which makers had these bench number stamps?

    Good eyes Chris..Eickhorn was the sole maker of benchmarking their lower crossguards..which puts the final nail in the coffin of making this a parts dagger. Eickhorn benchmarked crossguards were not sold or traded off. Another good reason why the grip to guard is a bad fit. Larry

    So if I understand you correct, if a crossguard (on an SA dagger) has a bench number, the crossguard itself is always made by Eickhorn? And if the rest of the dagger isn't Eickhorn, the dagger is always a parts dagger?
