I have an SS Dagger with the " TWINS" figure 1 1/4" from the crossgurd. Below the figure is RZM mark 5/8" from crossguard with 15/39 SS beneath it. The triple hanger is marked M5/25 RZM on the clip. It belonged to my dentists father who was an Army Capt. Surgeon in the European Theatre WW11 brought back on his return . Any thoughts?

The twins (Henckels)& RZM 15/39 rings alarm bells with me. Henckels number was 10 & I wouldn`t expect to see a maker mark on a 39 dagger.


War is when your government tells you who the enemy is.
Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.

That trademark is OK. There is also a version (I think) with ovals around the twins.
