2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger by Eickhorn
A M1937 Fliegerdolch by Carl Eickhorn of Solingen. The factory polished blade on this one rates Exc/Exc+. There is some scuffs like someone tried to sharpen it. I say tried because it's not sharp. There is some age gray. The tip is perfect, the fit is nice and tight and the etched Eickhorn maker mark is perfectly executed! The original blue pebbled leather buffer pad remains intact. The nickel plated Eickhorn scabbard is beautifully detailed with all of the oak leaves, acorns and pebbling while retaining great finish. The scabbard shows some light oxidation I suspect a light clean would clean up. It remains dent free! The headless throat retaining screws are unturned. The distinctive Eickhorn bands are alloy. The chemically darkened Textbook Eickhorn aluminum crossguard and heart shaped pommel are in fine condition. It has the hand enhancing to the sides. The crossguard shows excellent detail, in the eagles wings, chest and topside oak leaves and acorns. The ferrule is also nicely detailed. The deep orange trylon grip has a wee chip and hair line to the top pommel fit I clearly show. It's old and you have to go looking to find it. It has evidence of period wear. The aluminum twisted wire wrap remains tightly secured and in excellent condition! nicely finishing this is an original never been off frayed portepee.
