UBB.threads Forums Thread Like Summary - Database of Christmas Party Daggers.

Gentlemen, I propose to start collecting in one place all the known information about Christmas daggers. I think this exchange of information will be very useful. I propose to collect a base for all types of SA and SS daggers that have signs of early production. Not all of these daggers are dedicated to Roem, but they all have a lot to do with him. In addition to information about the daggers themselves, I think it would also be useful to try to trace their path at least to the veterans who sold them. Indeed, thanks to these people, we can enjoy these rare daggers. Of course, this will not always be possible, but the main thing is to start looking! Any proven provenance gives additional assurance of originality and, in addition to material value, adds history or soul to it.

I would like the owners of these rare daggers to help fill this thread.

This NSKK was on the market for a short while before it was sold at slightly more than $7000.

Here is my Christmas Dagger: Purchased in the early 1980s, it was vet walk-in at the Kansas City Show and has been in my collection since. As with many of these early Christmas Daggers, it was an NSKK owner painted scabbard when the color transition occurred (I would love to know how many of these Christmas Daggers came to NSKK owners?).
