Looks like a late war,period repaired,textbook,transitional,anomaly with a COA from Mr Hanney of Green Acres fame. (So you know it's right),that would require an in hand inspection.So it could be sold.

Mr Haney was the best, when it came to selling snake oil. Interesting though I saw somewhere on this SS forum the same style Numeral I group mark on another SS dagger in question,, small world. I believe he also sells handles for CB radios and has wheels in stock for football coaches grin

Well, to me, that implies there may be a chance it's original, which is just dishonest....

But, it makes for a good laugh!

It's kind of like playing dumb when cheating on your taxes. They can't put in jail for stupidity. They just fine you for stupidity, but they'll stick you under the jail for fraud!

Ok, here's a new one. A Himmler by Columbuswerk! Well, at least the seller admits he THINKS it's a copy:

My opinion it is a reproduction in super quality. I think it is a copy, but it just do not know, because I do not know much about it. Please do not bid if you agree.

Sell privately - no return and warranty!!!
Attention - Attention!!!

Shipping:

Germany: 4,50,- US Dollar
EU countries: 7,5,- US Dollar
Outside the EU: 9,- US Dollar

Dagger will be sold as on the pictures to watch is, what originality is not confirmed, because I am not versed at all with such matters and for that reason, I can give no guarantee of authenticity, so you look closely at the pictures and decide for yourself (I refer you to my large-format photos to yourself to take a picture), for this reason I offer you: Please provide only if you agree with state and said conditions are possible after purchase no claim, surrender or renegotiations.

John,

I believe the blade to be real but badly deteriorated and adorned with a fake inscription. A shame that we are seeing hard to find blades that have been reworked with bad inscriptions

Nah:
You guys must have slept through H.S. history class when they actually used to teach history in high school. It's a well known fact that Columbus discovered Germany before he even thought about finding America and opening his first McDonalds. This is a tribute dagger to the discovery!!

More laughs, a Malsch and Ambronn SS, a Himmler even:

Incredibly very rare blade for elite German Dagger
Hello dear ebayer, I'm selling here the stuff from the collection of my dead grandfather. I am familiar with such things from at all and can not really say exactly whether it's all things are real or not.

Blade is magnetic. Inscription on the blade - very deep etching blackened (no label).
Very rare Manufacturer: "Malsch & Ambronn Steinbach.

That's why you look at the pictures and decide for yourself exactly even I am a private person and I accept no return, exchange and there is no guarantee.

But who is familiar with military history - it is Determined have no problem. I will answer all your questions. When buying multiple items I charge it only once Shipping in max. 8, - USD.
Payment is easy and without risk to like PayPal or by bank transfer. Delivery is insured, worldwide and very fast. After purchase, you get it from me a tracking number so you could track the shipment online.


Very well preserved condition, see photos of many who say a thousand words.


Private sale - no return, exchange or warranty, please ask the article only if you agree.

At least the blade is acid etched, not laser etched.
