Title Luftwaffe close combat knife
Nationality German
Period c 1944
Sold

This is a nice example, with a near mint blade, of the Ardennes offensive combat knife, with Luftwaffe inspection stamp (an eagle over the number 5). One of the three spring clips on the scabbard is broken, hence the price. 95% original paintwork remains to scabbard.

testimonials

My order arrived this morning, thanks for the prompt delivery.

Two excellent original pieces, I must say.

Buckle is in minty condition retaining so much detail esp plummage on eagle's neck and chest, like to see those 'creases' on the legs also... a beautiful example of an early O&C buckle.

Belt is very interesting, rather thin, CROUPON stamped and also behind the tongue...maybe Allegmeine but no SS markings as you state. Beautiful piece none the less.

Thanks for a speedy transaction Chris, I am very happy with my purchase :)
