SS Himmler Honor Dagger by Carl Eickhorn
A Model 1934 - Schutzstaffel Ehrendolch mit Widmung by Carl Eickhorn of Solingen. These were presented to members of the SS who took part in “The Night of the Long Knives” and later to those who displayed unquestionable loyalty to H. Himmler. The blade on this one is gorgeous! The acid etched; “Meine Ehere Heißt Treue” motto, “In Herzlicher Freundschaft, H. Himmler” inscription and serrated tail “Carl Eickhorn Solingen” (smooth tail) maker mark are all crisp and beautifully executed! They provide a wonderful contrast to the bright blade. The crossgrain runs the entire length of the blade and is easily visible as you shine it in the light. The tip comes to a perfect point and the blade to crossguard fit is perfect. The blade rates an NM/Mint-. There is only the slightest spotting. The scabbard is the typical style we see with Himmler/Röhm examples. It is steel based, black anodized and has a heavily lacquered finish. It shows minor oxidization spotting throughout. It also holds a very nice and dark finish and remains completely dent free. The solid nickel-silver scalloped scabbard fittings look excellent. The ball remains perfectly round. All four screws remain intact. The solid nickel-silver crossguards are in excellent condition. The crossguard is bench marked “8”. The black died hardwood grip shows a few pressure marks and some flake chips, yet way better than most! The solid nickel eagle has a nice fit. The SS runes retain 99%+ of its enamel and also has nice and tight fit. For anyone who knows there aren’t any of these on the market right now. They are tough to come buy so here’s your chance.
