    At $2250, much less $1400, it reminds me of something my father used to say: “... having more money than they have brains.” FP

      Where exactly was this auctioned? Even as a fake I don't think Ebay would have allowed it.

        I want to say it was Rock Island Auction Company (they have been selling a ton of fakes lately!), don't mark my words, but I think that is where I got this listing from.

          A lot more of the fakes are showing up in all the auctions & in mom & pop antique shops. got a bunch of 3d reich junk , off to a antique shop with the grandpa story. they will buy the story & the items. I have one of these nice repro daggers. thought I over paid years ago when I bought it. during the 3d reich time these cases did exist but, as mentioned were custom ordered = rare. they did not look exactly like this one , simular.
          if you want to see an odd ball SS dagger case, see the one on german daggers.com
          I would like to make the type shown here ( or have them made) would sell well. jeff

            This fake was listed with Jeff Dobson & Associates Auctions in Georgia.

              I received my dagger and there is no way that anyone that have any knowledge in TR will think that this is a good dagger in hand that is.

              But online auctions is tricky it actually looks good from a distance and its pretty well made.

              I refurbished the case for my SA dagger and sold the SS dagger

                  Berra, while I commend you on your decision to sell the fake SS dagger, If I were you I would get a REAL SS for that case.

                      I saw a chinese one today, guy wanted $500 for it. ALso the box it was in had a made in China sticker on it,
