Not being an expert, I stay with the classic fowled anchor or sailing ship etches.
Some say that the Destroyer, U-Boat, Battleship or other etches could be had during the peroid by private special order.
But every one that I have ever seen discussed was unanimously deemed to be a fake.
So I prefer to avoid them altogether.

One thing these 2 daggers have in common are the scabbard band eyelets they don�t look right to me also the details to the bands are poor the Krebs mark should be stamped is this one? Looks etched to me.

Gator..What a hoot! He's researched it and it turns out..."ORIGINAL!!"   No wonder NoBoZoS can't sell his RAD Leader with all these "rarities" popping out from under the rock.  -wagner-

NOTE: I have done "business" with this "dealer" and got TOTALLY had on an "Original WWII Red Wool Armband". It only cost me $41 total but when I asked for a refund, I was asked to give Pos feedback on FeeBay first which I did. Refund? Never happened. I would suggest staying away from "Pastworldantiques" TOTALLY! I have emails from disgruntled buyers. I started a "Dispute" and the seller started one on me saying that I didn't pay. I am FeeBay user: trenchart7, you can see my Feedback, etc. STAY away from this seller! Regards, lloyd

the navies are an absolute minefield, if you`ll pardon the pun. until now i`ve concentrated on sa`s and heers, but i`ve just bought my first navy, from a reputable dealer i hasten to add. i`m with daggerob on this, until i get the wittman book, i`ll stick to what i know.
