I collect photos of them in wear as I journey through the SS microfilm records in the National Archives. SS daggers being worn in formal portraits are not as common as you might think. They can also be particularly difficult to see on the microfilm in light of the German photographers' penchant to pose Allgemeine-SS men against a dark background. And it is hard to find them not grasping the handle.

Enjoy!
