Luftwaffe Officer's Dagger 'F.W. Höller'

Luftwaffe Officer's Dagger (Luftwaffe Offizierdolch), complete with portepee and dagger hangers (Gehänge). This is the 2nd model LW officer's dagger which was officially introduced on 15 July 1937 along with specifically styled dagger hangers and a new pattern portepee. The dagger has a molded, white, bakelite grip with the correct diagonally silver/aluminum wire wrap. The grip is in overall good used condition. The blade is marked by the company 'F.W. Höller' from Solingen. The blade is in good used condition with some minor staining. The blade has some typical runner marks and is showing nice crossgraining when hold up against the light. The dagger comes with its original late war zinc type scabbard having a random pebbled pattern to both the obverse and reverse and smooth side panels. The Dagger is complete with its original Portepee and Dagger Hangers (Gehänge) as found together. The hangers are nicely 'D.R.G.M.' marked. Nice original later war period dagger in very good condition!
