2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger by Eickhorn
A M1937 Fliegerdolch by Carl Eickhorn of Solingen. Here's a great piece from the Vet's family! The factory polished blade on this one rates NM. There is just the most minor evidence of age, the tip is perfect, the fit is nice and tight and the etched Eickhorn maker mark is perfectly executed! The original blue pebbled leather buffer pad remains intact. The dark airplane grey Eickhorn scabbard is beautifully detailed with all of the oak leaves, acorns and pebbling while retaining great finish. The scabbard retains excellent patina and remains dent free! The throat retaining screws are unturned. The chemically darkened aluminum crossguard and pommel are in fine condition. The crossguard shows excellent detail, in the eagles wings, chest and topside oak leaves and acorns. The ferrule is also nicely detailed. The textbook pommel retains traces of gilt. It has the hand enhancing to the sides. The warm yellow chip and crack-free trylon grip is in excellent condition. It has evidence of period wear. The aluminum twisted wire wrap remains tightly secured and in excellent condition! nicely finishing this is a nice fray-free portepee.
