Description:

1) Helbig first pattern Luftwaffe dagger, 17 1/2 inches overall with a 12 inch blade marked "eagle/5", blackened silver furniture and a blue leather wrapped grip and sheath with chain hanger. 2) Nazi Red Cross enlisted dagger, 15 5/8 inches overall, 10 1/2 inch blunt tip sawback blade, alloy fittings, half-checkered grips and black enamel finished sheath with leather frog. In the two included notarized affidavits from Tomas Morgan, Jr., a friend to Elvis and member of the Shelby County Sheriff's Department, it is explained that these two daggers are part of a five dagger collection that Elvis collected while serving a tour of duty in Friedberg, German for the U.S. Army. Morgan states that Elvis gave these two daggers to his Chief of Security Richard Grob. The daggers were later acquired by Morgan from Grob.

Rating Definition:

1) Good. The blade shows some polishing and scratching, as well as some sharpening/reshaping of the tip, with age-appropriate wear on the leather. 2) Very good, with mild wear, spotting and handling marks overall.
