German Third Reich SS Dagger produced by the maker M7/37 (Robert Klaas). The steel blade retains nice cross-graining from the hilt to the tip, with light runner marks and some areas of greying. The acid engraved motto is crisp, but retains no darkening in the recesses. The maker mark can be seen pin the blades reverse near the cross-guard. The upper and lower cross-guards are made of nickel-plated zinc and remain bright with light patina. No lifting of the plating can be seen. The black ebony grip is with light patina and no damage. An aluminum grip eagle and enamel SS roundel are intact with no damage. The black-painted scabbard has minimal wear to the paint. The scabbards fittings are nickel-plated as well and exhibit a mild patina throughout. CONDITION: Excellent. DMW
