Gentlemen
Could anyone give me some advice about what would constitute a good representative 2nd pattern Luftwaffe dagger. This is for a display with Luftwaffe badges & documents. The documents start at 1938 so a wartime production one is not what I am looking for.
I haven't touched a German dagger in the last 9 years & haven't bought one for at least 13!!
I do not currently have any of the new references', but will probably be buying the Wittman Luft book.
What I would like opinions on are:
Maker
Condition? should it still have the gold swaz?
Material type (I cannot remember if the gray type is later issue??)
Price with or without hangers
Any help in this would be gratefully accepted & much appreciated.
Regards,
Neil
