dagger 3

I am interested to see if they are original. Thanks a lot
All i have found as infoon the originals, was made by Solingen/RZM, not by DWF.
I do not know what that DWF stands for.

Grizzlee,

Every dagger you have shown is bad - fake - really bad fakes !

Not correct in any way. Not even any good parts

Thanks a lot for the quick answer. Do you have any idea what that DWF stands for?

No. I have not heard of that. I think it is a fantasy initial for the dagger.

And, Welcome to GDC

Thanks for the answer. Any chance that this one is legit?
The guy said that he is a collector and bought these items from all over europe. He said that he cannot say if they are originals or not, but that they are for sure old. He has dozens of other ww2 items.

Some of the worst fakes I have seen. Whomever is offering these to you should be avoided since they are clearly not a source of period items.
