SA dagger with SS blade??? - 08/04/2009 03:08 PM
I picked this up a few weeks ago from an elderly woman, she found it under a car seat when she and her husband bought a used car years ago. The grip is an early nickel silver SA grip assembly. The blade is an unmarked SS blade, the type found on a m36 chained dagger and the scabbard is a late painted/plated SA scabbard but oddly there are no screws holding the fittings on the scabbard. Was this a piece that a GI mixed up or was this put together after the war to sell to GI's? All the parts appear to be original, but I could be wrong, take a look and let me know. Any and all opinions are welcome.
