M38 - 2.Modell Reichsluftschutzbund (RLB) Dolch für Führer by Paul Weyersberg of Solingen. The blade on this one is very nice! The acid etched “Paul Weyersberg Solingen” maker mark is dark, crisp and beautifully executed. The crossgrain is nice as you turn it in the sun being visible all the way from the hilt to tip. The tip comes to a perfect point and the fit is nice and tight. The blade on this one rates an easy Exc++. It has a bit of age and scuffs. The original blue pebbled leather buffer pad remains intact. The undented steel based blue pebbled leather covered scabbard is in wonderful condition. It shows the odd pressure mark yet holds a near perfect seam and 99% coverage! The scabbard fittings all look great, with wonderful patina that only time can create! The original screws remain intact. The unique RLB eagle crossguard has taken a hit and suffered a scrape to the back of the birds head and lost the tip of the left wing. The pommel is in excellent condition. All matching patina. The wood based, leather covered grip is in excellent condition as well! It shows only minor scuffs and a near perfect seam. The 2nd Model RLB emblem looks good, 99% of its enamel remains intact. An absolutely gorgeous piece...
