085EW1 - SS officer's M36 "Chained SS" with type I chain and belt loop. This fine example features a stunning Type I plated steel chain that has high relief skulls and runes that show great detail. The obverse side of the hardwood grip has a very small chip in the left-facing lower corner of the upper crossguard. The reverse side of the grip has a ½" size triangular chip also below the upper crossguard fitting. The nickel eagle and SS runes button are perfect and show excellent detail. The fit of the lower crossguard to the scabbard throat is perfect. The upper and lower crossguards are plated steel. This no parts dagger. The center scabbard fitting is secured by a single screw. All scabbard screws are "un-turned". The two screws that secure the lower scabbard fitting both show oxidation. The scabbard retains much of its original painted finish but has normal wear. There is no rust. The chain is perfect. The reverse of the chain is clearly SS proof stamped on the expected link. The cut -out cloverleaf shows the DRGM mark as Type I's demonstrate The blade is nearly stone mint with fantastic crossgraining. This is one of the nicest SS blades I've ever owned. The motto is deeply etched with a frosted background. There is no maker's mark as you would expect on factory produced M-36's. An excellent example. $8750. More Pictures
