The SA played an important part in the rise of Adolf Hitler into power. Originally their primary purpose was to act as a protection squad for the Nazi rallies and all forms of meetings. They were instrumental in blindly following orders from the senior party members so as to intimidate Romanis, trade unionists and Jewish businesses.
This early example of the issued SA dagger is maker marked C. G. HAENEL SUHL and unit marked “Mi” for Mitte Nuremburg . It has a painted scabbard with scuffing, but not excessive. All plated fittings are in nice condition with all plate intact, there is one dent to the scabbard ball. The wooden walnut handle is near perfect. The SA lozenge has full enamel and the inset eagle is in really beautiful condition. The dagger fits nicely into the scabbard with no play. All 4 securing screws are present. The blade motto “Alles fur Deutschland” is distinct, – blade in general is classed as good but is some pitting near the maker mark that may clean off if tried. The dagger has the standard hanger, leather and all fittings in excellent condition.
A very nice SA Dagger with Hanger.
