Ger

Another lovely item, Ger.

Another nice find! Love it!

Thx Gents, sometimes the simple elegant daggers like this one, the ones that in hand have the better over those "Prunk" Deluxe Hirschfängers.
I love it, its nice to have it bought on a show, meanwhile i wait for my 3 F. Dula's Waidbestecke, they move pretty slow during shipping from Germany, they are stuck somewhere on an export distribution center near the border.

Very nice blade, as usual for your finds, and a marked scabbard to boot.
Can't wait to see those F Dula's, I just love those. Sadly I have to just look at my Puma White Hunters and wish.
Congrats
Ed

Here are my F.Dula's the 3 Dula's just arrived.

Gerrit

Yes, Very interesting!

I have to ask! F.Dula's is it a type? maker?

Can't say I have seen these before!

Can we see the blades? Time frame?

They have a rad handle look!


Any pics of them worn or used for?


Very interesting!



PVON

Wow Gerrit,

I have a soft spot for these. One day I'm going to grab one up.

Here is a great thread by Gary, who i guess owns the mayority of these sets

https://forum.germandaggers.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=156933#Post156933

Timeframe 1935-41/42
F.Dula is the maker.
I will post some pics when i can find the time.
If you go through Gary's thread you see a guy in a DJS Uniform wearing one with a DJS Portepee attached to it.

Cheers
Ger

Here a couple of pics of the blades.

Ger

Wow, those are sweet!! Guess the DGRM is because of the blade shape[?]

The Maker of these was J.E. Dittert, Freidrich Dula was the bladesmith. The patent date for these was in October 1936 so any without DRGM on the blade is prior to that date.

Interesting knife on the far left of Gerrits picture, I do not recognise that as F Dula or at least I have never seen that type before, is it marked at all, it's certainly in a F Dula scabbard.

Gaspere,
Yes I presume the DRGM was for the blade shape, these were designed by Walter Frevert who later became Gorings chief Forester in Rominten(hunting reserve)

Gary

Gary the full stag knife is in bowiesstyle and is marked with "Handarbeit" on its ricasso.
I have been offered a second one also in a Dula scabbard, by the same seller from who i bought the 3 Dula's , i have been offered these sets by a friend of the former owner who passed away.
He was a long time collector.
It was great seeing another one in another collection, so there has been produced a small batch.

Cheers
Ger

Found a nice Schutzen mug, Hope you all like it,

Mikee,

I've not seen a shooting mug before. Cool.

Hey Dave,

Here's another Schutzen style mug or tankard. Steins are bigger but I guess calling them all steins is fine lol

This is one of the official mugs for the 18th Deutches Bundesschiessen held in Munich 16-23 July 1927. 189 targets and 5000 shooters with many many thousands of spectators.

Nice Schutzen mugs you got there Mikee. I have viewed some on the popular auction site, but I have not found a vintage Schutzen mug from a Town or City I wanted.

.

5000 shooters!! great turnout!! These are cool. One time I think we had a Stein/Tankard subject area here years ago.. That guy [the Mod I think] had some really great pieces!! Andy had some really nice ones. think the family split them up..

These are 3 really nice ones! thanks for showing.....

Hey Wetzel,
Hey G,

Thank you, and that wasn't the largest turn out. I believe the very first one held in Frankfurt was 8000 shooters but with only 100 targets.

I like just about anything shooting and hunting related.

Silver prize cup from 19th Deutches Bundesschiessen held in Koln 1930 with 3500 shooters and 200 targets and Munich mug. The Schutzenliesel or target girl pictured on the left was based on a real person. Her story is a nice historical read. Best!

1934 shooting prize cup.

1906 Silver shooting prize cup

Silver prize cup from the 20th Deutches Bundesschiessen held in leipzig 1934, the last of the great matches, 1800 shooters and only175 targets. After this it all changed. In 1937 the Deutscher Schutzenbund united with the Reichsverband Deutscher Kleinkaliber-Schutzenverbande and the Deutscher Kartell for Jagd and Sportschiessen and formed into the Deutscher Schutzen-Verband.

I don't think I showed this before. German target rifle with heavy octagon barrel, which was one of the shooters in the 15th Deutsches Bundesschiessen held in Munich 15-22 July 1906, 5000 shooters and 176 targets and was in others as well. So I'm lucky to own it. The double set triggers, once set you blow on it and it will go off lol. They are works of art!

Engraved action with double set triggers and diopter sights. Thanks for looking in and hope you enjoy this stuff as much as I do. Best!

Stunning Mikee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey G,

Thank you and glad you liked it.

love the rifle. the mugs are great to. fill them up with some Oktoberfest.

Thanks Luftbud,

I have others when I get more time I'll attempt to post them. I have plenty of large mugs from the Octoberfest in Munich and on occasion I fill them up lol.

Mikee suggested I should post my 1935 pewter bierkrug (beer mug) here. I was undecided for a few days whether to first post it here or make a new thread. So, when the 1935 pewter bierkrug arrived I decided to create a new thread (The Zimmerstutzen and related objects) and then take Mikee's later suggestion to add it to this thread since Mikee has posted so many wonderful German drinking vessels here.

"The lid is engraved with the owner's name: Konrad Blatterlein, the rim is engraved: Zimmerstutzen Schutzengesellsch. Goldkronach, above the shooting target with crossed rifles and fedora emblem is engraved: Schutzen Konig, below the shooting target with crossed rifles and fedora emblem is engraved: 1935, and below the date is a sun Swastika symbol. When I took it out of the box, I was very pleased and said to myself, WOW. Then I looked for a maker's mark on the bottom and found nothing. I then opened the lid and seen the maker's mark: "Georg Sturm, Bayreuth" in an oval."

PS OK Mikee, I know you have "Zimmerstutzen and related objects", how about posting something on the new thread and do you actually shoot your Zimmerstutzen (Parlor rifle)?

Last night I found and bought another pewter bierkrug (beer mug) made by Georg Sturm, Bayreuth.

The front of the 1926 Pewter bierkrug has the "old" coat-of-arms of Bayreuth by Tyroff (1835) emblem.

The lid is engraved: "Priv. Schutzengilde Bayreuth, Endschiessen 1926, 4. Preis".

The abbreviation of "Priv." is for: "Privilegierte" according to my friend in Oberkirch and I did find a Schutzen document with the word,"Privilegierte".

The 1926 pewter bierkrug is maker marked with Bayreuther, Gg. Sturm, Eichala.
