Early SA by JP Sauer & Sohn
Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.
A little known fact but the famous pistol maker Sauer was a true quality maker of SA daggers too! The bright blade on this one has been cleaned somewhat lightning the etching. The crisp acid etched "Alles fur Deutschland" motto and "J.P. Sauer & Sohn Suhl Gegr. 1751" still are easily readable. The fit remains nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfect point! The blade rates an easy Exc+. It shoes the common surface scratching throughout, but that's it. The brown anodized scabbard body looks great. It has some oxidization spotting but still retains some lacquer. The solid nickel scabbard fittings look good matching the crossguards in color and wear. The ball has a bruise to its bottom. All four screws remain intact. The reverse of the lower crossguard is marked "Fr" (Franken). The scabbard / crossguard fit is perfect! The brown hardwood grip looks excellent! Just the common pressure marks but no cracks, chips or splits! The grip / crossguard fits are near perfect! The solid nickel eagle retains beautiful detail and has a perfect fit. The SA roundel has a perfect fit and retains 100% of its enamel. An excellent SA all around!
