Now it reached 800 Euro = 1200 USD. And 5 more days to go. Take a look at the trademark. Homework number 1 if you are collecting German daggers: trademarks with the word "Germany" are post war. Poor bidders... Red you are right. WKC offering these currently on the website: http://www.wkc-collection.de/50marine.htmlJanos

It's Daggers 101... 'Germany' on the blade is an BIG avoid flag.

Methinks the bid that took this piece in one jump from 200 Euro to 800 Euro was a shill bid! That bidder had the same area code in Germany as the seller! (and one solitary feedback!)

Beside the outer shape of this item here there is really nothing comparable with a period dagger, hanger or portepee. Regards.

Just a horrible fake. Thanks to WKC for marking it Germany and not making it even close to looking original.
