Produced until 1938, when the second model was introduced. 9 7/8" double fuller blade with E & F Horster makers mark on the ricasso and etched designs on either side with a fouled anchor and ship at sea. Gilt finished brass hilt fittings, with retention clip in the crossguard, wire wrapped cream colored celluloid grip, and early style flaming ball pommel. With a gilt finished sheath, hammered surface with oak leaf suspenders and a pair of hanging rings.

Excellent. The blade shows some light wear and spotting, with hints of aged brass on the hilt and some faint handling marks on the grip. Sheath is good, with mixed colors. A very attractive original Navy dagger!
