SA Dagger: Real or Fake

**Man98** · 08-03-2018, 01:18 AM

I’m a new collector of German daggers and so I have a question regarding the authenticity of this SA Dagger that is RZM marked with an M7/13. If it is real, is the hanger real and what would be a good asking price?

I have oriented your photos correctly for you.

I see what appears to be an original RZM piece. I don't see any glaring problems with it.
The hanger looks okay to me as well, but there are others here that study these well.
We do not do free evaluations here.

Try Lakeside trader and see if you can find a similar example. These will be full dealer prices. So if you are buying collector to collector knock 20% or so off the dealer price to come to an estimated value.

? Sorry Michael... The math doesn't add up. If selling to a dealer your probably going to take a 20-25% hit.. If you or anyone is going to offer a iitem purchased for $1000.00 to a fellow collector and then give a 20% discount that is foolishness and no ROI.. Why bother ? Might as well do two for one and even lower the price more. I've never seen the rules stating a collector is granted discounts fom one to another .. Respectively .. G

I agree wholly with Michael and Ralph. A nice rather untouched later period SA. Dagger collectors generally prefer early maker marked pre RZM pieces, but if you are looking for a nice example to have in your collection it'd fit the bill. Kindest regards.
