WWII NAZI GERMAN LUFTWAFFE OFFICERS DAGGER WW2

Collector's production partly using an original M37 Luftwaffe officers' dagger with a Damascus etched blade. Roughly, 29cm long, bright, double edged, drop forged steel, stiletto style blade with a flat central plane. The blade features a Gold Luftwaffe Eagle to the obverse and to the reverse Damaststahl. The dagger has a well defined, nicely detailed, cast, nickle/silver plated crossguard, ferrule and pommel. The crossguard features a stylized national eagle with down-swept wings clutching a swastika to the obverse with a random pebbled field to the reverse. The top edge of the crossguard has an ornate etched oak-leaf pattern. The cast ferrule has a repeating, embossed oak-leaf pattern. The orb shaped pommel features an embossed oak-leaf pattern encompassing a dual encircled, canted, embossed swastika on a pebbled field background to both the obverse and the reverse. The dagger has a molded, red, bakelite grip with the correct, fine, twisted silver/aluminum wire wrap inset into the diagonally angled grooves. The dagger comes complete with its original silver washed, magnetic sheet steel scabbard. The scabbard features a pebbled field to both the obverse and the reverse with smooth side panels. The scabbard has an ornate, embossed, oak-leaf pattern to both the obverse and reverse of the bottom tip. The scabbard also has sweated-on, alloy hanger suspension bands with an ornate, embossed, repeating oak-leaf pattern. The hanger suspension rings are both intact. The scabbard's top throat has both retaining screws intact.
