Hi guys !
What do you think about this one ? I am tempted but I would like to have your opinions first. There are so manies copies and reassembled stuff that I need some reviews first.
Thanks in advance for your help !
SA Dagger by RZM M7/40/41 - Reviews
Hi guys !

Nothing ? No idea ? No opinion ?
It's a nice original late example in my opinion. PY.
Sloppily put together late example as would be expected towards the end of the production period.
The SA was a mere shadow of its former self and lost all its power ...being reduced to standing guard at parade functions.
The real history and craftmanship are in the early SA daggers.
Im not used to seeing an early grip on such a late example ...yet anything could be possible.
To each their own ..if you like it..purchase it ....I hope you do not pay more than $400 US

One issue im seeing is the mismatched condition of the grip to the blade which the blade is perfect and shows no in and out runner marks...at least have a little of it. Im not a fan of the RZM numbers using the " dots " .
examination what i said between the blade and the grip and make your decision from there.

I would search further as this is not 1 that i would want in my collection.
Im not gonna explain in detail why, but this one has red flags.

Thanks guys for your messages !
I will follow your advice and wait until I find a very nice one.
I think this SA dagger is by Hartkopf & Co, note the number 40. The full-stops are not an issue for this maker in my opinion. It appears to be in Near Mint/Mint condition complete with runner scoring, though light, along the length of the blade. Assembly perfectly acceptable for such a late production item. PY.
