The Swedish dagger I show is a model 1930, made by a Eric Gumaelius in Sweden., 7 years before the Hitler Youth Leaders dagger. I understand there were Solingen manufacturers and I know the post war 1952 Model was produced primarily by WKC. Most collectors I know accept that the Hitler Youth Leader originals were patterned after the Swedish. It is also almost impossible to find any of the original 1930 Swedish. I long suspected they have been turned into the gold leaders dagger. But, a lot of speculation.
