Heer Army Dagger Eickhorn

Absolutely textbook example from one of the most prestigious edged weapon firms of the Third Reich. Carl Eickhorn.

This has the 12 leaves pommel showing great patina. The type C grip in near mint condition, with normal wear and one small chip on the upper left if looking at from the front (third rib down). Beautiful type 4 crossguard with matching patina. A straight scabbard with one back screw as it should be with matching patina and only minor aging. One tiny ding on the bottom hardly noticible if your not looking. A bright blade with the second Eickhorn maker mark. The blade has very minor againg with almost all crossgrain remaining. All that together dates this piece to the years 1937-1940.  Overall a beautiful piece that is getting much harder to find these days.
