SS Stamped knife, indentify/opinions please? - 03/19/2010 07:54 PM
Hey guy, this knife if coming up for sale at a local auction and I've always been interested in obtaining a German knife or bayonet. Anyways, any help on this knife would be greatly appreciated. (Value, history, authentic etc.)
Here is what the auctioneer e-mailed to me after I inquired and pictures.
"SS and a E are stamped on the handle plus a few other letters stamped over each other. The blade is stamped with a D with three dots under it on one side and the other side has words that seem to be double stamped, the words or letters I could make out read Gott, Hamm & Solingen. Kane-M is on the snap of the sheath and sheath has oil inside. I'm not a expert in the field but the consigner said it was WWII. Hope this helps"
Thanks guys.
