Unusual blade on that one, is that unedged for cadets?

Yes. The safe blade. The dagger for Eleven. Eleven were a see cadets, a young boys.
Here a picture from the Vic Diehl and Hermann Hampe book “Deutsche Marinedolche”.

Another early dagger, this time a very interesting piece. From what I guess, it was reworked during the years 1919 -1928 (?) for the needs of a young navy cadet, using available parts probably from his grandfather's dagger. The blade, scabbard and pommel are from 1844 model. The hilt and grip are replaced so as to match the then-current standard. This dagger is a attic find, directly from family.
