Hi All,
It has been a long time since I have posted here, due to personal circumstances, my love of collecting WW2 memorabilia has been put on the back burner for several years. I am now looking to get back into it and am going to refresh my collection by selling off a few pieces and buying some new!!
I was never an expert, and just as I was starting to learn what to look out for etc, collecting had to take a backseat. All of my pieces have been bought from the e-stand, and it is with your help I have managed to grad some cracking pieces.
I would appreciate any help or feedback as to this piece, and what you think this would fetch these days?
Thanks in advance!!
This is the original info with the dagger....
An initial production Eickhorn Transitional dagger with hanger in magnificent condition. All fittings, both scabbard and dagger are constructed with nickel silver. This dagger has never been apart since the day it was made. No dents, dings or un-turned screws, in as close to unissued condition as you will find. Original lacquer stilll exists on the fittings. The blade is fab, superb with full cross graining with just the normal runner marks. The scabbard retains all of it's anodising as the pictures will show most of the lacquer remains with one spot on the reverse. The hanger is mint supple and without any obvious wear, frosted nickel silver grip eagle the eickhorn bag which is included did not come with the dagger. Transitional daggers are rare to begin with, but heres one of the first off the line!!!! You will never see one like this again!!
