The inscription on the dagger in question says

"Zur Erinnerung an uns Freindschaft ..."

It must be in correct German:

"Zur Erinnerung an unsere Freundschaft ..."

In English it says "In remembrance of our friendship ..."

The word "our" in German is written wrong ("uns" is wrong, "unsere" is correct) and also it must be an "u" instead of an "i" in the word "Freundschaft" (friendship).

Since I�m German, I can clearly say this would be red flag for me at the dagger in question. I�m quite sure that nobody in Germany would have engraved these words as on the dagger. Especially not when the dagger should be a present to someone.


you said it all,Ingo
