Hello Friends,
I was searching the net as usual in the search for some new stuff:-)

A dangerous place to look for some 'new stuff'. We all love to find the untouched original 'sleepers' but reality is another world.
Seems nobody wants to buy good books anymore. No wonder the usual authors are hesitant about publishing further excellent reference books when so many newer collectors would rather post on a forum the unusual pieces they come across on the web and ask: 'What do you guys think?'
It's a problem on all the forums now, cluttering thread after thread with pure junk like this SS dagger that is not even close to being believable.
If your into daggers I would suggest to buy Tom Wittmann's four books, and if you can find a old copy, Reproduction? Recognition! by Frederick Stephens.
Please don't take this as directed to you personally, it's not, but to all who just want to start threads asking the same question on one real bad fake after another-time and again.
If your looking to buy a SS dagger valued at $2,000+ it seems that spending first $175. on the best book on the topic would be a great start. The knowledge you would attain reading that book will pay for itself many times over.
It's JMO, and although it may not sound like it -just trying to help.
Best of the Study,
