Looking for some info on my Heer dagger. Would this be considered a mid or late period dagger?

Hello Mauser88, what I can see in the pics I would assume the dagger to be a mid period example (last variant crossguard but "suirrel with sword" trademark). A late model dagger would have the same overall configuration but the "suirrel looking over the shoulder" trademark.
Regards,

wotan, gd.c-b#105

"Never look for sqare eggs" as a late owner of an original FHH-dagger used to say.

Well the scabbard aint Eickhorn to start with.
The logo doesnt give away its production date.
The zinq based fittings do.
Ill date it 1937+

Regards
Ger

These is original Heer dagger, produced by Carl Eickhorn Solingen 4. type during 1936 - 1939 period.
IMO scabbard is replaced with Horster Solingen one.
