A RARE - Early Model 1933 Sturmabteilung Dienstdolch by C.D. Schaaff of Solingen. This one rates 10 out of 10 for rarity on McSaars SA rarity rating list! The blade on this one is in nice condition! The acid etched “Alles für Deutschland” motto and “C.D. Schaaff Solingen Gegr. 1871” maker mark are both crisp and beautifully executed! The crossgrain is easily visible. The fit remains nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfect point! This blade rates Exc++/NM. There is some spotting/age grey throughout and some pitting next to the crossguard. The steel based, brown anodized scabbard looks excellent. It shows no oxidization or dents. A beautiful brown finish remains. The solid nickel-silver scabbard fittings look excellent matching the crossguards in color and patina! The ball remains perfectly round all four scabbard screws remain intact, though one of the lowers looks buggered. The scabbard / crossguard fit is perfect and closes with a snap! The reverse of the lower crossguard is marked “No” (Nordeese). The light brown hardwood grip looks good. Threre is a 2-inch crack just above the right side of the eagle. It shows the common pressure marks throughout. The solid nickel eagle retains beautiful details and has a perfect fit. The SA roundel has a perfect fit and retains 99%+ of its enamel. A real treat when these rare ones come around!
