This is a great example of a mid war production 2nd Model Luftwaffe dagger. It is a fine Solingen Produced example made by the well known firm of E. & F. Hrster. The celluloid grip of this dagger is a nice ivory color, which has not faded to orange or brown like so many do. It has a nice slightly tapered shape, and is tightly wrapped with twisted wires. There is no cracking we can see, just some scuffs and stains.
