Are these dagger parts originals?

[afrikasandman]

Guys I have a question regarding these pieces I picked up. They are supposedly produced by Eickhorn or so I was told when I got them. They appear to be unfinished crossguard and pommel parts for a 1st model luft dagger and the SA/SS eagles are marked with an RZM in a circle on the right side of the wing and a M1/47 on the left side. Details are crisp and its hard to capture it in the photos. Appreciate the help in advance, if better pics are needed I will try to get better ones tomorrow. Matt

Better pictures needed... make sure you focus on the item not the landscape!!

there will be no more pictures taken facing the grass! I will post pics this afternoon. Matt

1st Luft parts look legit.
Focus is more on your fingers than the grass.
Best using a non distracting black/white background, and cams macro function, preferably with natural light.
They make fluorescent lights that simulate natural light, many will cast an undesirable bluish or yellow tint.

TRC,

I will do something different to try to get the focus off the fingers, will use a pillow or something else. But thanks for your opinion on the luft dagger parts. Matt

The eagles look legit, the other set of parts I am unsure of.

They all look like real period parts,but the Luft 1st hilt parts look like they were taken from a factory setting. Castings that didn't make it to the plating bath or gilting stage! Kevin.
