The choice of parade swords for Wehrmacht officers during the early 1930’s was huge. Each company produced their own variations with slightly different designs. There were ‘dove head’ hilts, ‘lions head hilts’ and ones in between! This design is known as a ‘jawless lions head’ hilt, and that’s exactly what it is! A great brass cast lions head with red glass eyes but it’s made without the lower ...  read more

I’ve had perhaps two of these, original rare daggers in my collecting career. This is the third. The hilt is cast in aluminium, is fire gilded and features a small eagle and swastika cast into the ferrell. The stag grips with 3 acorns each side, designate this as being a ‘subordinate’ forestry cutlass. The ‘senior’ rank has cream celluloid grips. The acorns on this piece would originally have b...  read more

This is a decent, original Third Reich army officers dagger with lemon yellow celluloid grip. Nickel plated fittings. Very good on the crossguard and pommel, some lifting to the scabbard body, but not too bad. The blade has been cleaned at some time and in places lightly sharpened. Again not badly at all. The crossguard is a ‘type B’ used by many manufacturers, but no mark on this blade. I’ve p...  read more

Always interesting that in the Third Reich era, even the German Red Cross was ‘military-used’ and their members wore daggers too! This is the dagger worn by non-officers. Quite a large dagger and was suspended from a belt vertically on a black leather bayonet type frog. These frogs are unique to Red Cross daggers and don’t fit anything else. The dull nickel finish is virtually complete througho...  read more

All aspects of the Third Reich were ‘militarised’ and that included the legal system, where the rule of law, according to Adolf Hitler, was administered. Senior members of the Justice System therefore were allowed to wear swords. Unlike the masses of the military, there were relatively few Justice Officials by comparison, therefore this a a very rare sword to find. There were several makers, CL...  read more
