Damascus dagger to Hellmuth Arpke

[Simon L]

I have recently discovered the dagger to Helmut Arpke. It is a non acid etched dagger made by Krebbs of Solingen with the inscription 'The heroic Falschirmjager' and then a signed name which I haven't managed to figure out yet. I am getting it appraised at the moment by a couple of experts. If it is real what is it worth?

I know this dagger. It’s postwar IMHO

Not good for sure.
