The RZM mark on SS and SA daggers varies greatly. For an instition that was supposed to bring uniformity to the political pattern daggers, they certainly forgot to specify uniformity of their own marks.

That particular one is OK. I have seen it many times. It is the only SS RZM dagger mark that uses the regular letters for "SS" instead of the lightning bolts.

In my opinion, that is not a vertical hanger. It is a short strap hanger and belt loop that someone had tried to make look like a vertical hanger. The short strap hanger, minus the snap clip and the little keeper has been threaded through the belt loop and carrying ring and buckled on the front of the scabbard. Frown
