Nearly correct..the deaths head badges are legit..passed on to me by a New Zealand WW2 vet who served in Africa..(been black lighted and burn tested and still have remnants of RZM stickers on back)...i bought the dagger (legit) many years ago for my father...he was a refugee from the Ukraine,and used to play with those daggers as a little boy....FESYeah, what Rugger just said. Besides the tabs are obviously modern fakes and the SS have no connection to the SA as such. None with any relevance to the historical - or aesthetical - value of the dagger anyway.
Shappa, I love the Siegle. Is this model one of his regulars or was it custom?
I emailed Bill to get some info on this dagger.
Found out why I couldn't find anything similar. He probably didn't make any more. He thinks this is the only one but he's not positive. If he made more it was only 2 or 3 at most.
The steel is 5160 with G-10 handle scales and a black teflon coating. Cool!
The blade is 5 1/2 inches from the tip to the scales. The blade is 1/4 inch thick with hollow grinds. The sheath has a tek-lok, so you can wear it horizontal or vertical.
Who made this?
that's my only dagger as wellNot my photo, but my one and only dagger. A hand me down from my father, and one hell of a knife.
