    Postschutz dagger for review

    This one has a link chain that I have not seen on Postschutz daggers. I am also not familiar with that type of clip. Has not the proper number of links from the factory (but that can always been modified by the original owner).

    I don't care for the shape of the blade toward the tip, or the hand/factory 'second edge' toward the tip. I also don't care for the color of the steel.
    The Weyerberg maker mark should be crisp, if not polished. I can't tell by the photos, but it doesn't ring the bell for me.

    The grip eagle, although not aluminum (I seen period ones that for some reason were not), I have not seen this type and looks like it was cast from a inferior mold as the details are somewhat lacking. The worst part is the wreath is not symmetrical to the swas.

    There's a couple other things but I will hold back on that. I guess I don't like it as a period original dagger.

    However, That's JMO. See what the other guys say.

      Chain is not a Postschutz chain. I would want to see the blade tang for the proper marking.

        I agree with Serge and Ron, very strange dagger. Eagle, chaine, blade (logo). Maybe it restored or parts item.

          Look at the finish of the blade! Restored?

            Klaus, The additional photos don't change my opinion.
            The three guys who have a good idea about this model (besides a couple others I know, but they choose to remain silent) have already spoken.

            The Postschutz is not a model many are familiar with as it's a scarce dagger.
            Ron W. has decades of experience, and Den 70 has studied the best fakes of this model in the last few years.

            I would reject this lot from your auction. If I'm asked on it I would have to give it a

                            This dagger is in storage and has been sometime since I had it in hand and referring to old pics taken . I remember appreciating the true cross grain and craftsman ship for this dagger .The purchase took me some time on lay away from a dealer years ago to purchase . .
