I have noticed this anamoly also. What is the reason why some early SS ems were not stamped with a district mark? Except for the Chained SS, you would think that the SS and the RZM would have strict control on the distribution of these daggers to their designated locations. I would expect it on the later models when the RZM was in "Full swing" but on the early stuff?? another mystery of collecting.
