Description
Early SA M33 Dagger (Dienstdolch M33). Nice pre-war dagger, the dagger has a wooden grip, the grip has a nicely inset nickel-silver national eagle and a nickel/silver enameled runic SA button. The dagger comes with its original brown anodized, magnetic sheet metal scabbard with solid nickel-silver fittings. The blade bears the inscription 'Alles für Deutschland' (Everything for Germany), the reverse ricasso is well marked with the etched manufacturer's marking indicating production by the company of 'Kaufmann & Söhne' from Solingen which is a rare maker. According to information I found this manufacturer only produced around 8000 daggers.The lower crossguard has a 'Wm' stamp for SA-Gruppe 'Westmark'. The blade is in good condition and has some typical runner marks and some minor scratching, see photos. The blade is showing nice crossgraining when hold up against the light.The dagger is complete with original 3-piece leather hangers as found together. Stunning original early dagger from a rare maker!
