[helmet64]

Hello, just to show this rare transitional dagger BOCKER...the clip on the hanger is very uncommon!!!

[Br. James]

The setup of the maker's logo and the RZM logo and license number on the ricasso is also quite uncommon!

This is a very very rare double proofed maker mark.
I've never seen another like this.

The hanger is not correct for this dagger. The metal clip is for a postschutz chain dagger.

Helmet, That is very interesting indeed! very COOL AND RARE mm period, let alone on a trans piece! Good on ya!! BTW, that clip looks like a Luftwaffe sword hanger type to me! Best, Kevin.

Yes I've receive photos of the hanger & it's not postschutz.
Again this maker mark is very rare

Never seen another dagger with this mark. Transitionals are fairly uncommon in general but it's very nice to see such a rarity.
