A German Second War Naval Officers Dagger with Straps.
An exceptionally clean example of the Third Reich naval officers dagger, the blade by Eickhorn having all of its deep clear etched panels of floriated work and fouled anchors with the nicely stamped original Eickhorn logo to the flat section of the blade, still with its leather washer. The gilt to the upper pommel, cross guard and scabbard virtually mint without any indentations to the scabbard, slight fading to the lower edge of the scabbard. The white celluloid grip without any cracks or damage with its original grip wire with a matching set of lion’s head buckles and superb quality outer straps with dark blue velvet backing, all of the clips to the straps work correctly, these straps are a matching set. Further complete with the naval officer’s narrow sword or dagger belt, the belt constructed in the identical material to the suspension straps with the dark blue velvet backing. The double pronged adjustable belt clip is missing, very good condition £600-£800
