Thank You very much, I had just fond the Gun Broker sight and saw this dagger was just listed a few minutes ago and I registered and jumped right on it like a kid in a candy store grin I paid a buy now price of 399 I had looked another SS dagger over and sent the pictures to an expert, He said the other one was a phony and I told him about this one and sent him pictures of it and he said I hate to tell you this but this is a fake also .
I sent a message to the seller and ask him for a refund before he sent the dagger. Hope he is honest and hear from him by next week.
Thank you very much, Bob

A good advice to buy some books and to study those SS daggers. These are expensive and highly faked. First know your stuff, then buy otherwise you gonne be burned for sure!

I hear you there, But Just jumped the gun without looking it over good Just jumped right on it I do have Reference books I Bought from Col Thompson back in the mid 70's, I Used to buy Japanese swords and Nazi Items back from about . 1975-85 I am an old Geezer 74 Years old. I was one of the Guys went to Major city's and set up inn Holiday Inns put the add in the paper and waited for the WWII Vets come in to sell them to me. I always paid a fair price for them never tried to rip anybody off.

Yo can't believe what I bought back them smile For about 1?10th of the price now . I bought some very Crisp daggers and Nazi Pistols My Main field was Japanese swords.
I did have quite a collection of all but don't have any left had to Sell all of them to survive.
I Have bought several SS Daggers and a couple three Chained SS daggers back then.
Col Johnson came in on one of my buying trips When I was in Indianapolis and I sold him three or four daggers one was a chained SS. Very Nice person.
