Couple More Daggers for Opinions

[Larry Lipps]

As usual I like to make sure I'm not missing any problems before I put some items on the stand. On those grounds I'll let you guys see if there's anything I'm missing.

First up is an SA Dagger by Tigerwerk Lauterjung& Co., Solingen

IMO RZM Tiger Solingen SA dagger blade and scabbard are ok for RZM era SA dagger, but im not sure for crossguard -wich looks like solidnickle type.)
Also there are some digs around eagle on wooden handle. Maybe is eagle replaced or at least tried?


Schlange

I'm looking for mint german straight shovel entrenching tool.

Both good, I see what schlange is saying with the cross guards on the SA but after looking closely I think they are plated, but Larry can you confirm that? I also think the area around the eagle is just typical RZM quality for 1941, IMO I don't think it has been messed with.

Sorry for the slow response, but I've had to wait on some decent weather to try and get some decent natural light photos. I would certainly have listed in my original post if I thought there was any chance the dagger had been messed with. The dagger fittings are positively plated. There is some dust around the eagle that I can see where it appeared it might have been messed with. but hopefully the better photos can dispel that. Anyway, if there is an issue I'd much rather find out not than after I place it on the estand.

And the Grip Eagle.

I think your dagger is fine, as I said I think the area around eagle is just rzm quality, if it was replaced it was period done in my opinion, but I don't think it was.
