Hello guys I am new to collecting german memorbilia and I wanted to know if this dagger was worth spending 400 dollars.

here is another pic

and another

and this ss does come with a scaabard but the pic is too big to put in.

I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination first of all. That said, would need better pics of the grip insignia to give a complete eval. To me the blade looks odd. Seems the center ridge is pretty sharp and motto looks newly darked and shallow. The condition of the blade doesn't seem to match the motto. Better pics of the grip may help.

Blade is fake and also i don't like the roman II stamp.
Only my opinion.

I think we have seen this one before. I remember the selective rusting which got the sides of the blade but not the middle.

Dave

Are you owner of this dagger?

No i am not the owner yet but i have met this guy from poland on the internet and he has sent me photos of 2 ss daggers. I was a little curious because the motto does look a little sharp. These were the photos he has sent me 2 othere did not load so i do not know what is up with it butit did look a litlle fishy. In your opinion guys what do you think with the pictures i have on here

I would pass on it.

I just love that term, "selective rusting" Dave. Like back in my SO days, "creative" this and "creative" that. Good term!

Good God! This is simply the Polish version of the Nigerian garbage it seems! I gotta admit that when I first got one of those Nigerian emails years back, I REALLY thought it was legit! I've seen stuff on other boards, forums or darn WHAT on this Pawel Nowak. VERY familiar to me.

This crook needs to be in some Polish Prison!
