SMF 2nd model luftwaffe dagger opinion
Hello I am purchasing my first dagger for my collection. I have the opportunity to buy this dagger. I know the scabbard is worse, but I just really liked the dagger. Please give me an opinion on the originality? What bothers me is the manufacturer's logo and that the blade is almost new. Is it possible that the blade has been preserved so well? Thanks for your help and your opinions.
Looks a good SMF to me ,nice gilding on both sides of the
pommel . Blades got the inspection stick bird stamp As you say ,shame about the scabard. Regards Paul.
Thank you
Hello Corter ..the blade has been preserved so well if left alone in a humid free environment. The scabbard is what is protecting to the condition of the blade.
This is very common with most Edged Weapons from this time period.
Paul Pointed out some important positive key points regarding SMF types ....all good...and the scabbard has seen its better days...the hanger looks like a dog chewed it
No need to hide the swastikas on the dagger unless these photos are from the seller.
Nice find
Regards Larry
