Seeking positive feedback on this recent acquisition. Please, no bad mouthing the piece, as you have never handled it and never will, as I intend to keep it as the capstone to my fabulous SS collection. I will however be glad to provide photographs to anyone wishing to include this rare specimen in a reference book.

The scabbard looks re-painted and the blade tip looks off but other than that..it looks good!

Andy:
That would go really well with my personally signed Henry Himmler SA  John |

Andy. Looks like a 100% original Rohm signature to me!!

Lower crossguard doesn't look right Too much tang clearance. Obvious repaint. Grip looks redone. The only thing this dagger has going for it is the Rohm dedication. Perfect example of his signature 6 hours into Oktoberfest using an early production etch-a-sketch.

Super-rare pre-prototype, in house, 1933 Rohm dedication. - Congrats!
My only concern is the grip shows the later standard grip eagle than the rare 1929 "pointy eagle" version. Perhaps a later "field" upgrade? |

SWEET.
Is it a vet pick up or directly from the family in Germany? |
|||
|
 |
Was that on Craig's site?

Best inscription I've seen in awhile...

"Excellent textbook Rohm dedicated SS dagger. This beauty has everything you want to see in a Rohm piece! Photos are very poor, and do not do this piece justice."
 You made my day.. |

Whether or not you are HAPPY with it is all that really matters! However I personally would not own it in my collection. IMO, but what do I know?

It's getting to the point when I can't tell if you guys are being serious or not?

So Gailen which one is it? You like it or it is a Joke? I’m so offended by this; on again - off again, make up the rules as you go along dagger popularity contest based on nothing more than 100 years of collecting experience that I think I’ll sell off my collection tomorrow! Joke indeed! Oh and IMO, I think this is Fun!

It's 100% real.

....and by the way, it's 173 years experience.

With Gailens approval...it's a 25K rarity to the "right" guy.

Can't find my key, forget where I'm going when I drive, don't remember my phone number, and somebody really thinks I know what I'm talking about on here ???????????? That's the real joke.

Tom, I think your right, It was on Craig's site. One of his very very special offerings! I think he sold it to Andy for about five times more than what he usually sells them for. I always wondered where all Andy's rare collectibles came from! That's what I heard anyway.
PS: Hey Andy, if you want retribution catch Craig in one of his "bathroom moods". |

You see I'm an idiot and so is Andy, the guy who started this thread.
Gailen |
|||
|
|
|
I believe. Most everything Andy has in his collection came from Craig?
Gailen |
|||
|
|
|
In fact I think Andy recently flew Craig out to appraise his collection.
