All ranks of the SS were authorised to wear SS Man’s daggers (see pages 48 & 49 of Johnson’s book Collecting The Edged Weapons Of The Third Reich Vol 1). This knife is one of several Nazi blades we have recently acquired that are new to the market having been in storage wrapped in Newspaper since the 1960's & 70's when they originally came into the possession of a market trader. One side of the blade is crisply stamped with the early production manufacturer’s name Carl Eickhorn Solingen & serrated tail Squirrel trademark. Eickhorn made approximately 52,000 of these daggers. ‘The service daggers of the SA & The NSKK’ by Siegert. There is no RZM marking indicating that this is an early production example. The name of the Nazi SA leader & friend of Hitler, Ernst Rohm together with 'Friendship' motto was inscribed on early SS daggers. In 1934, Rohm was accused of Treason against Hitler and he was executed. After Rohm's death Hitler ordered Rohm's name to be removed from all blades. This dagger was made with the Rohm name and inscription which has been contemporarily factory removed in compliance with Hitler’s order. The rubbing of the inscription has affected just the edges of the manufacturer’s trade mark. Over the rubbing is period engraved SS service number ‘46363. ’The other side of the blade has the correct "Meine Ehre Heisst Treue" (my honour is loyalty) etching. The black wooden grip is original and undamaged with just some minor service wear scuffs to the surface which can be seen in the images.

Two Tanto Blades With Webbing and Leather Sheaths. 21263. - 21263
The Tanto blade history goes back all the way to 12th century feudal Japan, to be specific. Then and there, samurai carried two swords for combat, one long and one short. The latter was known as the tant!3; (which translates to "short sword" or "dagger"). The tant!3; that samurai wielded were different from tanto knives you'll see today though; they maintained a continuous edge that curved near the tip like some straight back pocket knives do. The Texas-based knife manufacturer Cold Steel gets credit for introducing the sharp angle into the blade belly, sometimes referred to as an American tanto, in the early 1980s. The black model has a 14 ½ cm Stainless Steel blade (28 ½ cm overall) and steel grip with diamond pattern and integrated strap hole. The steel ricasso has a minor mark which is negligible. The black webbing sheath has an integrated belt hoop and straps for combat equipment attachment. The other has an 11 cm Stainless Steel blade (21 cm overall) and a rubber grip with diamond pattern and integrated strap hole in the brass coloured pommel. It has a brass coloured ricasso below the grip. The thick black leather sheath has a double integrated belt hoop to the rear with a Velcro holder. Both blade and sheath are in very nice condition. The price is for the two blades and includes UK delivery. 21263. (Fighting Knives)
