(DLV) flyer knife

It is nice to see so much of the original frosting/silvering still in place.

Not bad at all

A very nice Eickhorn DLV you have, Artem.

Make sure NOT to clean those silvered parts, because that is what makes these pieces most valuable!

90 % of these daggers have lost their "frosted" look by cleaning off the original finishing.

Best regards,

Strangely in this condition the hanger is missing.

Serge, not strange as a lot of US Veterans cut the hangers off. They told me they didn't want them to rattle when shipping home in the mail to draw attention to the package for fear of theft.

Your correct Ron.
Probably for the same reasons at times the vets cut off the scabbard rings ?
