My grandfathers collection.

These are some pieces from my grandfathers gun and memorabilia collection. These are his WW2 daggers.
I am going to add more pictures of his extensive collection.

Please enjoy! Reagan

Forgot to mention... top pictures, in the right picture the most right dagger is a reproduction.

Hi Reagan, I have not had chance yet to say "Hello" and welcome to the forum. Your Grandad had some nice items!

I was slightly surprised that you said the Luftwaffe dagger is a fake?

When you get chance, try and swop the daggers around as most seem to have the scabbards back to front. As a general guide, the hanger rings will be on the right.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi

And welcome

The Deutscher Luftsport-Verband looks to be an early nickel one, nice!

I would like to see better pictures of the 1st patten luffty if you get a chance

Great collection

The one I said was fake is truly a fake... made in China on blade...
Let's make sure we're talking about the same one. It's the second picture the farthest to the right. Its to the right of the SA dagger missing the scabbard.

Thanks! Reagan

That's the one!

Some of these daggers are really nice, one of these days I will get some close up shots of the handles and blades.

Thanks! Reagan
