Thanks Wunderkind. How does a dagger like this differ from a 'parts dagger'? I guess I would be buying this as a centr piece in a collection of 3. I have purchased a nice partial Romh which has great hitoric value. My aim is to one day get a decent Himmler, and the piece in question here would be the bling piece, text book mint look show piece in the middle up on my wall. Its nice to dream! Thing is I guess people may have questions to ask when it comes to selling this one day and I understand what you mean about not being satisfied until you have the best. Thing is though. This thing looks beautifull I think. I love the anodised scabbard.
