Third Reich NSKK Chained Leaders Dagger-Eickhorn
This dagger appears never to have been apart, having an undamaged pommel nut and perfectly fitted Crossguards. These are the plated variety and have lost some finish, mainly adjacent to the grip. SA rune and grip eagle are perfectly inset, the eagle having fine details to the wings and breast feathering. Blade has undamaged edges and a perfect tip with some age to the surfaces, much of which could be carefully cleaned. “Alles fúr Deutschland” motto is deeply etched to the obverse, whilst the reverse is stamped RZM M7/66 1938, along with the Eickhorn 35-41 trademark.
Black painted scabbard retains much of its original finish with age spidering beneath. Fittings have all screws present and the lower ball is undented. Chain is correctly attached, having well defined links, one of which is correctly stamped with the NSKK Musterschütz information. Upper spring clip has lost its clip. Dagger does not seat all the way into the scabbard, sitting proud by no more than 1mm. , possibly due to an obstruction at the bottom of the scabbard, paper perhaps??
