Eickhorn Navy Kriegsmarine Dagger

[Blued]

Hi all,

So I kind of stumbled across this, and I am completely in the dark on these as I have only dealt with Soldbuchs and medals to-date. I was wondering if I could get the forums opinion on this. I looked at examples on the forum and internet and it seems to match up, but knowing fakers, I want to know if there's anything I should be looking out for.

The blade engraving still looks immaculate.

Thanks in advance.

If any additional pictures are needed to come to a conclusion, please let me know

Lions on hangers. I can take more pictures of this if there is question. It almost seems that the straps have velvet? on one side. Does that sound right?

Very nice, everything you want to see in a late Eickhorn, heart shaped pommel, square quillion... Excellent find, a keeper for sure

Textbook late marked Eickhorn and wartime hangers. I'd be happy to include it in my collection.
