Early SA Dagger by Neptun
Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.
An excellent example from huge collection that we recently got in! The blade on this one looks excellent! The acid etched "Alles für Deutschland" motto and "Neptun Solingen" maker mark are both beautifully executed! The crossgrain is easily visible all the way from the hilt to the tip. The fit remains nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfect point! This blade rates a solid Exc++. It shows several nicks to the edges along with the commonly seen age grey/spotting and surface scratches throughout. The steel based, brown anodized scabbard looks excellent as well! It only shows evidence of period wear yet retains 60% of its original factory lacquer! The solid nickel scabbard fittings are nicely patinaed matching the crossguards in color and wear. The ball has two pressure marks to the bottom and all four screws remain tightly intact. The scabbard / crossguard fit is near perfect and closes with a snap! The reverse of the lower crossguard is marked "No" (Nordsee). The brown hardwood grip looks good. It shows several pressure marks throughout along with two wee chips and a flake above the roundel. The solid nickel eagle retains beautiful details and has a perfect fit. The SA roundel has a perfect fit and retains 98% of its enamel. A great early SA dagger! One that would fit in perfectly with your collection!
