Hello there, Im new in this forum and collect in Denmark.

But I hope that You can help me, with this one??

I have picked up this Army Dagger (Heer Dagger)from Carl Eickhorn, with a inscription on the blade.
I have seen a question (i think it was from 2013?) in your forum on a Luftwaffe Dagger, with the same inscription: Gew.v.s. Kam.III.Z.5/162 Weihn. 41
Can You please tell me, if this inscription are common and have been seen on other type Daggers??
Looking forward to hear from You Gentlemen.

I can�t comment on the inscription but the dagger fittings & scabbard are not what I would expect to see a Eickhorn Heer fitted with.

Such "simple" inscriptions are nearly impossible to judge. There are no special signs which can be connected to any period. Perhaps an in hand inspection with a magnifying glass could shed a little light in the case.
But when WW2-Collector states that several parts of the dagger "are not what I would expect to see a Eickhorn Heer fitted with" and when you have seen the exact(?) inscription also on a Luftwaffe dagger it is much enough to see the incription at least as highly suspect.

Agree with Tom, this blade does not belong with these fittings or scabbard. Kevin.


It's ALL in the DETAILS!!.......
