Boker Swiss Dagger

[98K Plinker]

Does anyone own this knife? Do you think its worth the money as far as built quality.

$275 is a bit pricey for a limited use knife. It reminds me of an SS, SA dagger from WWII. More for display or collecting practical use.

Worth the money. The Germans copied this Swiss design for their SS/SA daggers.

Yeah, that is exactly what I thought. Turns out the swiss dagger "was popular back in the 15th and 16th centuries with swiss pikemen."

It's a timeless design. Now I wonder if the Luftwaffe daggers from back then were an original design or if they were modeled after an earlier dagger style?

I read in; The Black March, that those knives were "used" by the Germans.
