DLV Dagger by SMF
Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.
A fine looking DLV! The bright blade on this one looks good. The crisp acid etched "SMF Solingen" maker mark is beautifully executed! Some crossgrain continues to remain visible. It has a perfect tip and solid fit. The blade rates an Exc++. It has been cleaned and shows surface scratches and age grey/spotting throughout. The original blue pebbled leather buffer pad continues to remain intact. The steel based re-leathered scabbard looks great! A near perfect seam and no scuffs. The solid nickel-silver fittings look excellent! The ball continues to retain a nice round shape and all four screws remain intact! The throat is correctly marked with the DLV logo. The scabbard/dagger fit is perfect. The solid nickel-silver hilt fitting look excellent perfectly matching the scabbard fitting in color, wear and patina! You can still see nice traces of lacquer to the crevasses! The wood based blue pebbled leather covered grip looks great! It shows the odd pressure mark and some fading to the blue yet it retains 95%+ leather coverage. The end of the crossguard is "K" (kaster) marked. The black enameled swastikas are practically perfect! Finally, the original hanger is intact with a solid well working nickel-silver clip. An excellent example you would be proud to own!
