Any red flags on this for anyone? The eagle on the handle looks slightly different then others I have seen on here, especially behind the head.
I tried uploading twice but couldnt get them to rotate, sorry

It appears to be an NSKK lapel pin inserted into the handle. Could have been done war time but not from the factory.
I doubt that anyone would have done this war time as it would have been against regulations.

The seller said it was his grandpas, so perhaps a pieced together bringback?
Thanks!
I had one like it and the swas was replaced by a miniature "Treu dienst" medal.
Looks like some heavy sanding/wood putty where the eagle has been inserted. Grandpa or not, I would say "no thanks!".
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

It seems to be an NSKK lapel pin and also swords and sabers implanted into the grip. Could have been done fighting time but not from the sweatshop.
I distrust that anyone would have done this war time as it would have been beside guidelines.
Yes, there is something very strange going on in the grip area around the eagle. Porous pin holes are visible and different colour tone.
The grip is a reworked Eickhorn grip..the rest of the dagger has seen its better days but good. Post war application of the grip eagle. December 1933 began on a certain amount of early SA daggers ..the short winged 1929 style eagle...but not an NSKK eagle on a Mid period transitional dagger...all SA and SS grips were all standard production..no exceptions.

Hi Larry, the only "short winged eagles" I've ever seen (in pictures) are those belonging to the so called "christmas daggers"... do you refer to those? Where can we see examples of the '29 style eagles you are talking about?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Kind regards,
Marc
