Direct from Vet's family. This in my mind is the most desirable 1st Luft you can buy! You can have those shiny aluminum daggers and give me early all nickel ones every day of the week! Here's exactly what I'm talkin' about right here. The plated blade on this one looks good! The early double oval "Eickhorn Solingen" etched maker mark is nicely executed. It has a good mirror like finish to with along with a solid fit and perfect tip! It rates an NM. Just minor in/out marks It retains its original blue pebbled buffer pad. If you peek under there you will find an assembly #, "6". The early blue, pebbled leather covered scabbard looks excellent! About 99% leather coverage remains intact, with a perfect seam! The solid nickel fittings show wonderful age patina and match the hilt in color and wear. There is a hit to the lower fitting. The solid nickel chain is in excellent condition. It has 9 upper ringlets and 14 lower, ending at a well working solid nickel clip! The solid nickel hilt looks great! All four separately inserted brass sun wheel swastikas are beautiful! See how all all the silver plating remains between the swas's "legs"? So nice and rare to see. 75% of these I see anymore have all that silver polished off. The wood based, blue leather grip has aged quite nicely. It retains its perfect nickel triple wire wrap. A really great early Eick. example for the discerning collector.
