NSFK FLYERS KNIFE BY EICKHORN.
This very nice example would have originally been issue to the DLV but in 1937 it was re-issued to the NSFK. All early nickel silver fittings have a nice old age patina but it would clean if required. The crossguard features black enamel swastikas to the obverse and reverse sides and the enamel is in perfect condition, the tip of the crossguard is stamped with the letter K and the opposite side has a tiny waffen amp stamp. The matching pommel is in fine condition. The blue leather grip is in near mint condition. The blade is in almost mint condition and it features the 1933 / 35 Eickhorn Solingen small oval trade mark. The scabbard retains all original blue leather and it is fitted with matching silver mounts, the throat is stamped with the NSFK winged man with swastika organisation acceptance stamp and also a small waffen amp stamp, if there was a DLV stamp this was removed when it was re-issued to the NSFK. Complete with original leather hanger with metal clip. A superb example in near mint condition.
GERMAN BLACK NECK TIE WITH ARYAN PRODUCTION LABEL.
Black cotton tie as issued to Political leaders, SS, HJ, DAF, Panzer troops and other organisations. The interior of the tie has a rare ADEFA cloth issue label with makers details, these labels were attached to cloth items to show that the product was produced by an Aryan company. Apparently as late is 1938 the Reich Government was concerned that many cloth products were still being produced by Jewish workers. Complete with 1938 English language report about this apparent problem. Near mint

A very rare dagger for the German postal protection service and this example is in extremely nice condition. The Postschutze was established in 1933 to protect the German postal organisation by attack by saboteurs, in 1942 it came under the control of the SS and many of its senior leaders were also SS officers. During the war some Postschutze members served in the Waffen SS to protect the SS postal system from attack. The silver plated hilt fittings are in fine condition, the unique crossguard design features two black swastikas and these are also in mint condition, the under side of the crossguard is issue stamped, DRP 117 and which an extremely low number to find and it is one of the lowest I have seen. The black grip is also in perfect condition which is rare to see as the grip is often damaged on this model dagger, the grip is complete with the silver metal Postschutze insignia, a silver eagle and swastika with six lightning bolts. The blade is by Paul Wayersberg and it is in almost mint condition, this really is a superb blade. The superb scabbard retains at least 90% original black and it is complete with three silver fittings which are in almost mint condition. Complete with chain hanger, the original spring clip is in working order and the reverse side is marked DRGM in a box design which is the correct markings for a postal dagger, these clips are very fragile and they are often seen with replacement un-marked clips.
