I think we could open here a thread where true unworn - not only good conditioned daggers with somehow added bag - ANL daggers (and perhaps, per request, also other real unworn ones, fitting in this "unworn" thread) could be shown and discussed.
I start with my SMF in cardboard box.
Unfortunately the necessary format reduction makes the pictures very small. I am unable to handle it better.

Here is my unissued EICKHORN bajonet (has the jiggling squirrel logo).
Are there really no more unworn blades owned by other members???

And a PUMA fighting knife. Sorry that I had to hide the certain, detailed printing because of "fighting fakes" reasons.

Existing, yes. But very very few.
I have to say that all photographs are done such a way that minute or even large details are covered to fight fakers. Otherwise it would be easy at least laserprint such bags and so on.
When you have the real think you know what to look for (eg. consistence and structure of papers) and have a lot of help in detecting fakes. I have to add that nowadays also the triange seals of SA, SS and NSKK are faked, also riveted arund the grip or the scabbard ring. Not very close to any original (if you know how an original does look like) but even dealers sell them for horrible prices as original unworn daggers.....

I am more proud of the flag I picked up. Now I have to wait for another unused example to come up for sale. I just have to beat wotan for it. I do have two more packages coming my way next week. But they are nothing to brag about.
