    Kreigsmarine Dagger Original?

    I was looking at a WKC Kriegsmarine dagger some one was showing me. The WKC has the amoured suit symbol. White handle, hammer scabbard. It has (2) orange coloured stones attached to eagle's body at top of dagger. It is also a fairly heavy piece too.
    Were there any made with coloured stones attached?
    I am playing this by memory, the seller had 10 fantasy daggers and (2) repro SS daggers. But the navy one almost has me convinced it was original. He wants 700 US.
    Any advice please.

    Well as far as i know,there should not be any stone to the dagger.
    This is just what i remember.
    You will be told what is right.

    Pics always help

      Would need pictures to tell for sure. Might be a modification carried out by the original owner, but certailny not a factory option.

      Best,

        i have seen a period navy with a single coral stone attatched to crossguard by original owner , this was orangy pink , was the one you saw cut like a jewel stone or smooth rounded . didnt signify anything that i know , probably just a bit of `custom work` but made a nice touch .

          The (2) stones were cut jewel style with the facits and were held by claws like on jewelry.The hangers looked too new as well, the brass material was a tad shinny.Blade with nice etching had a little pitting at end. I met owner and was shown yesterday at a local show. The one repro ss dagger, that looked not half bad, sold to another guy for about 60 US, as I had declined it as it had RZM and a ruin SS on blade, the chain links looked too shinny and scabbard/dagger at fit had a fair gap. Owner of these daggers might call me this week and I'll look at Navy dagger again, try to take a couple pics. He has my # and I will awiat his call, if someone else hasn't taken it first.
          Thanks for advice.
