Hello,
before longer time I have here pictures found from Russian Soldiers with booty Dolchen. Who has the picture rights? I would take these pictures gladly also into my book.
Thanks
who has the rights?? who ever is in possession of it!
Thats a great shot. Many Soviet solders wanted daggers to take home.. It's one of the few things they still will not part with!
*I'm not a dagger guy but thats a really nice web site you have there!. I don't get to see pieces taken apart and all the small nuances etc.
Tremendous website, tons of great info-well done and thanks.

Hello,
thank you for the praise. Momentarily I write at a book concerning " Dienstdolche " the SA and the NSKK. The book becomes very extensively, more dagger and NSKK more dagger with much, many information about the SA. First the book in German language with an edition is to appear from 500 pieces. Perhaps there is also thereafter a English-language expenditure. , You know Ilya please the contact to the user " Kessel " manufacture, do I do speak none Russian?
Thank you for the assistance
Ralf
Very nice photo and web site! These daggers seem to have been of particular interest to Russian soldiers, but in all of the photos I've seen of them wearing SA daggers I don't think I've ever seen them wearing the dagger the grip eagle out or visible. It would be interesting to know what the specific orders there were regarding this. ~ Ian
