Description:

Following after the pattern of the 1936 redesign of the SS uniform dagger, this style of dagger and sheath was intended for ranking members of the NSKK (National Socialist Motor Corps), which started as the transport arm of the Nazi Party and became the leading driver's education/traffic authority after the rise to power of the party. Measuring 13 5/8 inches overall with an 8 5/8 inch blade etched "Alles fur Deutschland" (Everything for Germany) on the obverse, and the reverse showing an etched RZM logo over "M7/42" (WKC) near the guard. Nickel-finished alloy fittings with the traditional "SA" and Party Eagle badges on the brown wood grip. With a black enamel and nickel-finished sheath fitted with an integral middle suspension band and a chain hanger. The hanger is decorated with oak leaves on the clip, NSKK eagles and sunwheel swastikas on the faces of the links (4 front, 5 back), "RZ/M" and "M5/8" (Assmann & Sons, Luedenscheid) on the back of one rear link and "MUSTERSCHUTZ/NSKK-/KORPSFUHRUNG" on one of the front links. Included with the set is a letter from Thomas Wittmann (operator of Wittmann Antique Militaria and author of multiple books on Nazi-era military/political edged weapons) dated to 1995, describing the item as a "WKC NSKK Chained Officer" dagger featured in one of his "Wittmann Offering" catalogs.

Rating Definition:

Very fine overall, with some light handling marks overall, a small amount of spotting near the tip of the otherwise excellent blade and a few dings on the grip. The sheath retains most of the original paint and is very fine overall, and shows minor scratches and spotting.
