Re: Two army daggers by Horster
I am going to go on a glass "binge' for a few moments ...I am amazed anymore of these types of grips,,and also wondering what was actually going through the producers minds to make such delicate grips that would easily chip or break. Ther is no doubt in my mind that to have one of these type of army daggers then and now would be an honorable. Which also brings me to comment on Honorable......this is just speculation and opinion,,,but compared to a dedication type of dagger I am wondering that these special glass grips were some sort of gift from the Higher up officers..or was it a special made to oredrwith a higher price tag?.
I can not imagine these types of dagegr grips going into the field of battle and not coming out chipped or cracked. I have only seen near perfect to mint examples of these grips in the past.
@ danny..you have out done yourself again and they are quite the beauties.
Any thoughts anyone on these type of grips being a gift or army type award dagger? Just a thought Regards Larry

Re: Two army daggers by Horster
From the appearance of the 1st dagger's grip, it could well Be made of Amber. As Larry speculated, this would almost certainly have been a gift from a higher up. I can't imagine anyone having the pretension to actually order Himself an Amber gripped dagger...
Two beauties in immaculate condition, by anyone's standards! I particularly like the original tag still being in place! Very nice!
