Title 1st model Hitler Youth dagger
Nationality German
Period c 1937
Sold

This is the model with the blood and honour ('blut und ehre') inscription. It is marked 'M7/37' for the maker, E & F Horster, which is also impressed in full on the blade, which has been carefully sharpened. This knife was carried by fully fledged members of the HJ as a mark of achievement within the unit.

The scabbard retains excellent leather work and 70% of its original paintwork. The enamel in the grip badge is perfect and the badge rattles somewhat in its recess, as should most originals.

Thank you, Chris. All arrived safely. Very quickly too, much quicker than from the US! Very satisfied. It is a nice sword.

Anyway, thanks again and I have marked your site for future interest.
