Gentlemen I have been fortunate to acquire a couple of Brannik youth knives from a privately run museum in UK. The owner, a lifelong collector now in his seventies, picked these items up many many years ago and unconditionally guarantees their authenticity. They are identified as a pre 1938 Brannik youth leaders dagger ,and a 1938-1943 Brannik youth dagger:

Blades. Whilst not in the best of condition, I suspect rarity may trump condition in this case??

Wow, very nice indeed. I have not seen the earlier version. The colors of the later one are quite vivid, compared to my example below.
