Very nice sixpack! Also registrated the variants of hangers.
Please can you show more detail of these daggers (for me I especially would like to see more from the HELLER/Marienthal one).

Nice set of Armies.

I too particularly like the darker orange grips.
I have attached a picture of one I sold recently.

Best wishes, Wendy & Ian

I'd buy this dagger to the original german owner for 200 euros with the original portepee & hanger. It was a good day for me...
Just one question: the Heller logo on the blade is on the same side that the eagle on the crossguard (front of the dagger). Is it possible, or the logo is always on the other side (behind), so I'll turn the blade...
Thanks & best regards.

As written here many times by different collectors, the logos for sure did come both sides. Especially the early daggers seem to have it more in the front side of the blade (what I personally could observe). I could obtain several armies directly from the former wearer or his family, with the logo on the front. Also to mention that there was a former thread with now gone (retreated) photographs (which I have secured for myself) wherein several HELLER armies were shown, all but one with the logo on the front.
So I would highly recommend to leave it alone.
Thank you very much for showing additional pics of this very interesting piece,
regards,
