Title 2nd pattern RLB dagger
Nationality German
Period c 1939
Sold

Nice example with 22 cm double-edged blade marked Paul Weyersberg & Co, Solingen. The Reichs Luftschutz Bund was the air raid protection service of the Third Reich; the enlisted men and junior NCOs were entitled to wear this dagger, later modified with a different starburst design to the hilt.

Paintwork refinished to body of scabbard; leather washer at base of blade now missing; nice billet clamp seam to both sides of tang; nickel silver finish to all metal mounts; ebony grip. This now has a replacement leather strap of the correct type with a stainless steel loop and a nickel silver belt clip.
