A M1937 2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger (Fliegerdolch) by Anton Wingen. Nice clean example. Blade is a NM example free of and pitting or age grey. It has been cleaned at some point and remains nice and bright with lots of grain. It is marked with the Wingen knight to reverse. The blade is seated through a brown leather washer into a nice dark burnished crossguard. As was the practice of smaller makers like this the fittings and scabbards were purchased from other larger suppliers then finished in house. All the fittings are in fine shape with the backgrounds being burnished. Scabbard is a mid-period WKC example with a matching finish. Throat is retained by headless screws. Original deep orange trylon grip is flawless. with original early brass springy wire wrap.
