Schutzstaffel (SS) Dagger – RZM marked
Standard dagger issued to the SS personnel which functioned originally as Hitler’s personal bodyguard unit.
Working from top down. The top fitting and securing screw are in nice condition with no lifting of the plating, nice tight secure fit. Black ebony handle has some scuffing and scratches but not so bad. Eagle inset is secure and in very nice condition. Cross-guard does have some plate lifting estimated at 20% of the area. Scabbard fittings are very clean but do have a few small dents, only one of the four screws are remaining. Scabbard itself is dulled but in fair condition with one small dent along the edge.
The blade is pitted but may clean up if any new owner would like to do this. Its marked RZM M7/36 for E. & F. Horster, Solingen. The SS motto “Meine Ehre Heist Treue” (My Honour is Loyalty) is readable but very dull. This is an untouched SS Dagger and no doubts all parts are original to it.
If you want an SS Dagger but dont want to pay £2200 plus, then this dagger is priced accordingly.
