Early WKC Army Dagger

German WWII > Edged Weapons > Army Daggers >

Guys often ask: ?Between this dagger and that one which one would you buy?? let me just tell you right now, this is the one I would buy! A near mint, heavy early brass, completely matching, slant grip WKC Army Dagger, honestly there is no need to look any further! The blade on this one is a beauty! The fit is nice and tight, the tip comes to a perfect point and the crossgrain is absolutely stunning! The acid etched knights head "WKC Solingen" maker mark is beautifully executed! It has the early tapered tang you would expect as well! The blade rates a solid Exc++/NM. There isjust a few dots of age. The original large brown leather buffer pad remains intact. The early silver plated, brass based, yes brass based non-magnetic, for those of you, ?in the know? you know they stopped doing the all brass thing in the very first few months of production, scabbard provides wonderful detail with the random pebbling throughout and hand enhanced oak leaf and acorn bands! It remains completely dent free! Both original throat retaining screws remains intact. The brass based, silver plated early WKC eagle crossguard provides beautiful hand enhanced details throughout the eagle's head, wings, wreath, beak and chest. The pommel and ferrule are also beautifully detailed with hand enhancing and proud oak leaves and acorns. The crossguard, scabbard and pommel are all brass based and all match in color, plating and its dark patina. The silver plating throughout remains in superb condition! The warm orange, trylon slant grip on this one is near perfect! No chips, cracks, hits, dirt or splits! This is a super example that I wouldn't let go!
