SA Dagger (Item SA 9-1) |
||||||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a very fine, super-excellent-condition Sturmabteilung dagger. This is incredibly fine with mirror-bright fittings. It is an ‘RZM’ issue and so marked with ‘M7/10 1941’ on the blade. The scabbard is very clean as is the fine grip and fittings. There is a bit of utrafine scratching on the bottom cross guard. The blade is as near mint as they can go. It has the rarely encountered leather hangar that is also in near-mint condition. Here is a very exceptional example of this form of dagger that is starting to disappear from the scene.
PRICE: SOLD |

SA Dagger (Item SA 9-2) |
|||||||
| DESCRIPTION: Here is a very fine example of an ‘RZM’-issue dagger. It has the ‘RZM’ mark on the blade with ‘7/66 1942.’ The blade is much better than average. In fact, it’s very fine. The scabbard is unnicked, the fittings bright, the wood unmarred, and pretty. It comes with original leather hanging strap and buckle that is also in fine condition. This is an excellent example of a disappearing relic that will reach $1,000 or more in the not-to-distant future.
PRICE: SOLD |

SA Dagger (Item SA 9-3) |
||||||||||
| DESCRIPTION: Here is a fine example of the SA dagger with fine, wood-grained grip in the desirable dark hue. The blade has been cleaned through the years, but is still bright and generally good. During the cleaning the maker’s mark was mostly unfortunately obliterated, but what does show appears to have been very light to start with. The cross guard is stamped ‘BO’ for the distribution control mark (regional command). This one is from the Bayerische Ostmark. It is overall quite a beautiful dagger (really!) and these are getting so scarce.
PRICE: $750.00 |

SA Dagger (Item SA 9-4) |
||||||||
| DESCRIPTION: Here is an excellent example of the SA Sturmabteilung dagger. This one is by a rare maker Justinuswerk in Solingen, who used a medieval pole arm or halberd as its logo. The distribution control mark for the regional command on this one is ‘BO’ for Bayerische Ostmark. The blade is quite fine with the usual fine scratching from the scabbard inner fittings. This one has the original leather, buckled hanger that is worn from use, but still intact. The clip devise bears the ‘RZM M5/71 oLc’ markings. The grip is the superior blend of fine grain coloration and fits well with no gaps. It has the heavy, natural, nickel fittings on scabbard and cross guard and crown. This is just as nice an example that we have seen of a dagger that is getting rarer every day. You could not do too much better than this one.
PRICE: $936.00 |

SA Dagger (rare maker) (Item SA 9-5) |
|||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a nice, clean example with a nicely grained wood grip and closely fitted guards. It has a really rare maker’s mark—Hugo Köller Solingen. The logo is an eagle that looks more American than German and remarkably this eagle looks like he I sitting on a flag shield with stripes. Actually, it is his tail feathers. His claws hold something that looks like kitchen knives. The cross guard is marked ‘NRH’ for Niederrhein SA Gruppe. The blade is bout average with no pitting (clean). The wood fits to the metal well. The SA button and eagle fit tight and fine. The scabbard fits the blade a bit loosely; possibly if the scabbard throat screws were tightened up then the blade would fit tighter. The anodized finish of the scabbard is also about average showing wear, but no abuse. Some of the front parts are a bit worn, but still nice and original. This is a fine early marked SA dagger and again I remind you a rare maker.

German (Illuminati) Masonic Dagger (skull & bones) (Item SA 9-6; KWEPS 3-8) |
||||||||||||||||||||
| DESCRIPTION: Here is a very rare piece of Germanic cult paraphernalia in the form of the skull-decorated dagger of the Illuminati, whose American branch is the Skull and Bones Society at Yale University. Members have included such notables as George Bush and his son “W” as well as their so-called political opponents John Kerry and other draconian figures. These are occultists by every description of the word. George “W” was initiated in 1968 at Yale’s mausoleum chamber known as “The Tomb” when undergraduates broke in they found that the “Holy of Holies’” inner sanctum has red velvet walls and carpet with a large pentagram emblazoned on the wall. All this begins with the Knights Templar that started well in Christian doctrine and protection and propagation of the faith, but unfortunately, degenerated speedily into a mystic pantheism carried even to Idolatry of Nature and intense hatred of all revealed dogma. They recognized the pantheistic symbolism of the grand masters of Black Magic. They rendered divine honors to the monstrous idol Baphomet. The apron of the European Masonic Templar Order has the skull and bones as its central theme. The skull dagger was only used in the highest rites of this templar group as a reminder as it lay on the altar of the penalty of the “blood oath;” usually, the cabala lay opened next to it. Albert Pike was appointed head of the Illuminati operations in the U.S. in 1834. He is quoted as uttering these chilling words: “…and the true and pure philosophical religion is the belief in Lucifer.” This dagger represents evil in its most pronounced and historical entity. Most Freemasons in the U.S. in the lower degrees have no understanding of the occult background of the illuminated ones. Even 32nd-degree lodge brothers have no inkling of it, but clandestine groups such as the Skull and Bonesmen know; oh, yes, they know! Also, the 33rd degree is also replete with the occult values. The dagger is quite rare as the grandmasters would never willingly let one go in any instance, but the Freemasons were banned in the Third German Reich of Adolf Hitler. They were considered subversive, occultist, and antiwestern. Many lodges were raided by the SS and German police and in some of the lightening assaults on what the Nazi’s considered dens of vipers, many of the items of Masonic ritual were confiscated and most destroyed. This particular weapon was seized by an SA man who participated in just such a raid in the city of Halle near Leipzig. We were able to buy it from the family. Realizing that evil often is portrayed as beauty it is not surprising that this dagger is absolutely stunning in its design and balance. We believe it was made some time in the 1920s. It is a masterpiece of the sword- and dagger-maker’s art. Probably manufactured in Solingen it measures about 15 inches long in its scabbard. The cross guard measures 4 1/2 inches across. The long and lethal-looking blade is 13 inches in length (13)!!! The cross guard and scabbard are heavily-gilded brass. The scabbard is covered in leather. The handle and skull portions are in extra-fine celluloid, similar to the fittings on German Army and Air Force daggers. The leering skull has red stone ruby-like insets. The blade is in excellent condition with finely cut Masonic symbols (8 of them). The square and compass, the skull, the book (what book?), the trowel, the judgment hammer, the pyramid, Solomon’s temple, the cross guards bear the all-seeing eyes, and the square and compass. In many years we have seen only one other of these pieces and that was in a European museum. The dagger is in excellent shape. The blade stops a little from completely entering the scabbard because of some leather shrinkage often seen in such items. Here is the rarest of the rare, evil as all hell, but beautiful!

SA Dagger ‘RZM’ (Item SA 9-7) |
|||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a pretty, clean example of an SA dagger. It's a Carl Eickhorn make with the RZM code "M 7/66." It's tight fitting with the blade in emaculate condition. There is some minor scuffing on the scabbard and a bit of minor oxidation on the scabbard throat; hardly noticable. It also has nice light-wood graining to the grip. This is just a very fine example of the world's most famous and beautifully designed knife (dagger).
PRICE: $779.00.00 |

SA Dagger (RZM) (Item SA 9-8) |
|||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a quite beautiful example of an ‘RZM’ piece with perfect grip. It has a good anodized scabbard finish, almost-mint blade marked ‘RZM 7/83,’ nickel plated, and cross and top guard perfectly matching in finish. Eagle is dull, but close fitting (will clean up). This is just a very fine example of the classic SA weapon. The code ‘7/83’ is for the firm of Pluemacher Son (Richard Pluemarcher and they made some of the best.
PRICE: $780.00.00 |

‘RZM’ SA Dagger (Item SA 9-9) |
||||
| DESCRIPTION: This SA dagger is an extra, extra nice example of an ‘RZM’ dagger. It has a good grip, fine scabbard finish, and minty blade marked ‘RZM M7/27.’ This is the code for the company that was known as Pumawerk (Lautering & Sohn) Solingen. It’s everything it should be and more as far as condition.
PRICE: $838.00.00 |

SA Dagger (RZM) (Item SA 9-10) |
|||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a first-class, first-condition SA dagger with the mark ‘RZM M7/66.’ The dagger is in just-about excellent condition with the exception of the scabbard tip. This is missing one of the tiny screws and the ball at the bottom is what we call ‘ruptured;’ probably dropped at some point, and there is a split in its side. There are also some marks on the blade that are made in many of these daggers from rubbing against the scabbard runners (does not detract from what is a first-class SA dagger). The scabbard is in the deep chocolate-brown color as is the grip (perfect match). It has extremely tight wood-to-metal fittings. It has the perfect eagle and enameled button with bright nickeled finish. Other than the scabbard tip, there are no other dents, abrasions, or pitting. This is an Eickhorn; the dagger of choice among most collectors. This is a great addition to any good collection at a very decent price.
PRICE: $834.00.00 |

SA Dagger (Gustav Spitzer) (Item SA 9-11) |
|||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a nice early example of an SA dagger with fine, clean nickeled fittings and great deep-brown scabbard. The scabbard, as with most non-‘RZM’ early company-marked daggers, has a few scratches on the scabbard, but it’s still presentable. The grip and fittings are perfect. The blade has a couple of minor splotches, but it is fine, otherwise. The dagger is by Gustav Spitzer and is so marked with its Solingen logo (the rampant lion). The unit marking on the cross guard is ‘W-F Westfallen-Sturm Section.’ This is a first-class weapon with a semi-rare maker.
PRICE: $834.00.00 |

SA Dagger RZM (Item SA 9-12) |
||||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a nice SA dagger with tight fittings; good, grained grip; nice scabbard paint with a few slight scratches; practically mint-condition blade; bright eagle; good SA button; and unruptured ball fitting on tip. It has ‘RZM – M7/2 1937,’ which means this is for the Emil Voos Waffenfabrik in Solingen. This is a very nice, especially clean piece worthy of a good collection.
PRICE: $822.00 |

Practically “Stone Mint” Condition SA Dagger (Item SA 9-13) |
||||||||||||
| DESCRIPTION: Here is one of the finest condition SA daggers we have ever seen except for very tiny specks on the scabbard tip. This dagger seems to be untouched by human hands. In fact, we slip on gloves when handling it. The scabbard, cross fittings, and blade are all pristine. The wood is unblemished and the “Allies for Deutschland” motto is brilliant and clear. The manufacturer’s code “M7/27” stands for Pumawerk Lauterjung & Sohn Solingen, one of the companies that had the original SA contract and produced some of the finest examples. The wood employed in the grips was some of the best looking of the period. We can’t emphasize enough how perfect an example this one truly is.
PRICE: SOLD |

SA Dagger from the Bayerische Ostmark (Item SA 9-14) |
||||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is a nice, clean dagger company labeled, not ‘RZM’ with the eastern Bavaria identification (BO) on the cross guard. The dagger's condition will be rated 95 percent plus for condition with nice original paint on the scabbard and close-fitted furniture. The blade is used, but not abused. The letters are a bit stressed and the blade itself probably went through a professional cleaning during its past (probably before 1945). In this cleaning the brand logo was for the most part removed. We can make out Josef and Solingen. The rest is obliterated. So, we have a nice SA dagger with a blade that could be better.
PRICE: $575.00; a bargain at that |

Postwar SA “Parts” Dagger w/o Scabbard (Item SA 9-15) |
|||||
| DESCRIPTION: These daggers were produced in Germany at the end of World War II, and most likely into the 1950s and are constructed using some original parts. An example is shown in volume 1, of Thomas Johnson's book Collecting the Edged Weapons of the Third Reich. The dagger has aluminum hilt fittings. It has a dark reddish-brown plastic grip and this is perfect with no cracks or chips. The eagle and SA insert are perfectly placed. The dagger has an excellent grip-to-cross-guard fit. The blade is excellent with the SA motto deeply attached with gray background frosting. The blade features the sharp ridge seen on postwar SA badges. 100 percent of the cross graining remaining. This is actually a great addition to any Third Reich edged weapon collection because it is indeed a Solingen-produced item that has its definite connection to the war’s direct aftermath. Actually is quite rare today. You see far more of the prewar and wartime examples; that's for sure!
PRICE: $350.00; quite scarce and priced right! |

Postwar SA “Parts” Dagger w/o Scabbard (Item SA 9-16) |
||||||
| DESCRIPTION: This is another of the plastic-grip daggers produced after the war by a Solingen firm that simply wanted to stay in the SA dagger business. Many GIs, who arrived too late to pick up an early example, satisfied themselves by purchasing one of these “wannabes.” Actually, they are a rather handsome weapon. They bear a logo with a cross with “B & A” within a circle. Under this it says “Solingen,” and then “Germany.” We believe the cross guard’s eagles and SA inserts are original leftover parts that were used by one of the companies for this promotion. This is the only one we have ever encountered with the gilded motto on the blade. Other than that it fits the rest of the description of the one above at SA 9-15. There is some slight surface rust that will come off in a hurry with a careful cleaning. Again, this is a worthy addition to a dagger collection considering its historical meaning to the Solingen industries’ postwar efforts.
PRICE: $395.00; quite rare, especially with gilted blade |
