A WWII Nazi German Heer Dagger – Carl Eickhorn.

A WWII Nazi German Heer Dagger – Carl Eickhorn. This German Heer Dagger is an exquisite, top-quality example of the standard German Army officer dagger. The steel blade is bright and beautiful, and very well-preserved, with excellent cross-graining. The blade is crisply etched on the reverse ricasso with the “squirrel” logo of Carl Eickhorn, a maker known for high quality craftsmanship. White/cream celluloid grip. The crossguard and pommel are very nice, with a light, attractive patina. This German Heer Dagger is complete with its original scabbard. The scabbard shows crisp pebbling and is complete with the both original suspension rings. The scabbard body has an even patina that perfectly matches the metal fittings on the handle. Attached to the scabbard is a good condition belt hanger, with functional pebbled spring clips with a great patina. The buckles and keepers are engraved with the same oak and acorn motif seen throughout the dagger. Overall, this is really a very nice dagger, with exceptional eye appeal. Good condition. Length 39 cm.
