Hello treedctr, I think you will be able to get better help on this naval dagger translation if you could include a photo of the dagger and inscriptions.

A good picture of the inscription would help yes, but if I should make a guess here:

For 25 years
servicecelebration(jubilee)
April 1 1941

Stewardship
Battleship
"Tirpitz"

This sounds allmost to good to be true so please post some pictures.


Regards
Trond.

Bismark, Thank you for the translation. Yes its a t for tirpitz. I tried to upload 2 pics. The only pics I have were emailed to me by the seller. They are in a format size too large to allow to upload to this website. I am trying negociate to buy it. If I buy it of course I could take my own picture. But it's in scripted scroll etching on the flat part of blade just below the crosssguard where the maker mark stamp normally is so I don't know the maker brand. It has a hammerd scabberd. A gold intricately wrapped portapee you can tell has never been off of it. I could go on and on so I just want to thank you! I could send you a private email with the pics attached if you want to.
Oliver
