Hi Keen Collectors. Here is a great grip of a early August Bickel with orginal lack on the dark grip & great burnishing. This grip is made out of some type hardwood. Fr marked crossguard. the blade is a screamer too.  Do you like it ? regards LH

Thanks Sam yes thay are nice. here is the other side of the grip. Very close image , but i will host up more pics of the complete dagger when its land into my collection very soon. A dagger from my homeland The dagger is not messed with. All is pristine as found. I like it that way ! I do bealive this type of daggers is made out of the Solingen area ? is that correct ? All Aug Bickel i have seen have hard wood type grip. I have another Aug Bickel in my collection too. Thats a wedding engraved one.

Love those dark handled SAs,, I have noticed on period photos that the higher up SA guys liked the darker handled grips than the lighter ones. Just my thought on that, but yours is a beauty. Larry

a classic Bickel handle- note the sharp lines of the wood- not shown are the flat edges at the sides of the handles- Bickel was supposedly one of the 4 companies in Solingen that owned their own handle making machine, hence the almost unique nature of the shape( they may have also sold to smaller companies). Very nice-Mike

Very nice, Bickels, guys.
Jarle, why on earth do you need two?
Let some of us poor earthlings at them. I am sure that you have a countryman living not far from you who would love to own such a great and scarce piece.
