Tantalising Research Possibility

SA dagger for sale with low number, made by the premier Solingen maker, Eickhorn. The 1933 pattern, German SA dagger,  in beautiful condition, with a fine rose-brown, fruit-wood grip, which fits well to the upper and lower cross guards. The grip has a wonderful two-tone appearence. All solid nickel-silver mounts throughout; the lower cross guard, and the top scabbard mount bearing an early SA membership number '8147.'

The blade with the SA motto to the obverse, and the full early Eickhorn cartouche. The scabbard in the typical brown 'anodised' finish.

Condition report: The SA dagger grip in near-excellent condition, free from any cracks or splits. The nickle-silver mounts clean. The SA dagger blade with 95% original polish and crossgrain, particularly crisp motto, which retains 98% of the original blackening to the letters. The scabbard in clean condition, with 75% anodised finish remaining. Scabbard shell bearing one small dent towards the bottom mount on the obverse. All screws present, and unmolested. Bottom mount ball free from dents or damage.

Notes: The SA dagger with research potential on account of its relatively early - and therefore low -  SA membership number.
