It's very common and 100% correct.

Didn't they make K98s too?

Didn't they make K98s too?

Yes, they certainly made firearms. I'm pretty sure that was their main occupation. I know a gun collector that pours over WWII handguns and rifles looking for only Sauer made pieces.

[Larry Lipps]

Perhaps because they were a gunmaker with access to fine wood, they often display some really outstanding grips on their daggers.

[Skipper Greenwade]

Not sure where they fall on the rarity scale, but Sauer SA Daggers are very desirable due to - as noted by Larry - the quality off the wood grips.

Best,
Skip

Skipper,
They are rated a 3 on McSarr. That's an interesting observation about the wood, makes sense they would have access to high quality wood.
