Hitler Youth knife authenticity

[4Ley22]

Hi all

I recently bought a hitler youth dagger from someone clearing out a house. Got it for £170 which i thought was cheap. Just wanted to know if it was the real deal, ive done some research and looks it but would like second opinion.

Thanks

Looks strange to me and one I would not own. Others will have better info but it did not pass the first sniff test for me.

It's an authentic early HJ knife of the 1933-36 era. The blade profile looks like it has been reshaped but could be the photo angle. The brown leather sheath is home made. The scabbard has lost it's original hanger. Maker mark correct and a confirmed HJ maker.

I agree well used original. You can also see the motto as well. I believe someone cleaned it as best they could. The diamond should move a little in the set. Check that.
