What are the feeling on this?

If you are asking about the dagger, more pictures would be needed to give you a decent opinion.

Dave

All awarded to the same guy as well

Big time closeups of dagger, eagle looks bad so far-MJM

Looks like a dream come true....

he did call it a bit of rubish

If that were a real grouping it would be worth a house or two with 3 types of the German Order, not to mention the Honour dagger.

, that could not happen. But original, that is another matter. Yes they are original.

Very, very impressive, never seen such a wonderful grouping.
I love that SS Honor dagger ( my dream dagger ).
Congrats and thanks for the "view".

Looks to me like one of mvogel´s photographs...
Regards,

This is a NSKK Honour dagger.mvogel´s photographs, who is this?

My mistake, I hadn't noticed that it was an SA Honor dagger and not an SS.
Still, a beautiful blade to say the least.
Any close up view of the maker marked ?
This SA Honor seems 100% original IMO and I don't see anything wrong with it.

Christopher:

With a black scabbard, this would be an NSKK Honour. But, I thought that these were chained only. You learn something new every day.

Is the scabbard painted or leathered?

John

The scabard is leathered with very fine grained leather.

A world class grouping of the most rare and amazing 3rd reich objects of art.


A grouping that I along with probably most everyone else has ever seen displayed in one photo at a site.

That NSKK Honor dagger is the only one I know of! I'm just gasping Christopher!

...and to show all this to little ole us here..I FOR ONE AM VERY GRATEFUL!

-serge-

Chris, Manfred Vogel used to be a member here who liked to show his daggers with medals and badges grouped together. Daggers were good, the other pieces sometimes not so good..

Me,,I'd rather have your red enameled Coburg!

Yes Yes, red enamelled Coburg, very rare.

Nolan

The names Farlow/Kenton/Fisher/Beadle et al and a certain jeweller spring to mind.!!!

Would that be Eddie Kenton and Chris Farlow of Islington fame in the seventies? Mike and Badger Ross were by the tube station at that time who were good friends and good guys in my opinion but didnt deal in TR

"Eddie Kenton and Chris Farlow of Islington", real blast from the past.

Rogues gallery..highly imaginative birds of a feather with a few others thrown in for good measure.If my employers at Grosvenor Square knew
what I witnessed many mornings I would have been
out of there post haste....

Hi Chris, do you remember just further up and across the road on Upper street Angel Armoury and Pete Dredge? He was around at the same time as Chris Farlow, I had a few good dealings with him (Dredge) then he sold me a put together 'Bavarian Palace Guards Picklehaube' and wouldn't take it back, also another London rogue from back then Geoffrey George Warner?
I still have a price list from Farlow's 'Call to Arms' circa 73.

Last year, there was a great debate raging here on GDC about whether the NSKK Honor was real or not.

I have found reference to an NSKK Ehrendolch in the Eickhorn catalog, no pictures, but referring to the fact that it, like the SA Ehrendolch, cannot be purchased, but is awarded by the RZM.

Can we see pictures of the blade, Christopher?
