The center scabbard mounting is a period refit being refitted after the NSKK moved to having a chained dagger for its leaders instead of the earlier style. The chains' links show excellent detail in the alternating swastika and eagle links. The links that connect the chain to the scabbard on the reverse are stamped with the RZM code and NSKK… The scabbard paint is original showing minor, normal wear to the bare metal.

0710EW25-1small.jpg 0710EW25  - DLV (Early Luftwaffe) by Paul Weyersberg. This is a beautiful example of pre/ early Luftwaffe edge weaponry. " The grip and crossguard have brass high-relief, sunwheel swastikas giving a gilt appearance. The grip leather shows age and minor usage but is in very good condition. One of the characteristics of these daggers is the leather over wood scabbard that accounts for the unevenness of the scabbard. The reverse of each of the scabbard fittings is joined by staples, another characteristic of DLV's. The original leather is in great condition with some compression being evident at the bottom near the lower scabbard fitting. The reverse of the upper scabbard fitting is etched with "106". The blade is marked Paul Weyersberg with a DLV acceptance stamp. The blade is in near mint condition. $1999.  More Pictures

0710EW17-1small.jpg 0710EW17  - RAD subordinate hewer with Full stag grips by Carl Eickhorn. RAD's are becoming harder to find at shows as they disappear into collections.
