Hello All, I thought this would be interesting. How many GDC members own, at least one, Himmler dedicated daggers, in their collection, right now! No pics, no B/S! Anyone want to play? I'll start I have 1! Regards, Leipzig

Seiler (Yank in UK)

Gee,only nine Himmlers!A real rare "Babe"
this one.
Seiler

Thanks to All, so far! Yes, I forgot crossguard markings! Mine are H.E., also. kumatrax, funny you should use the term "split-tail", when I was younger[much younger] we used that term as slang for a certain part of the female anatomy! Regards, Leipzig

i just call em as i see em! besides, shorter word, easier to spell, etc.

Have two: Split tail, no benchmark, HE; smooth tail, benchmarked 5, AR.

hi all, i think we should have a more accurate title to this thread. im sure lots of people who have himmlers would love to share their items, but may just be cruising by and not get it. it would also be a great resource for all of us to start posting pictures of our daggers. i can start, as i posted my dagger under the heading "himmler casts" in a previous thread. i would love to see pics of all, especially grumpy's!

One Smooth tail..........Bench#6,,,,I think..............Jimmy

Here you go. The "serrated tail" has the "high-neck" grip eagle. The "smooth tail" grip has the "pointed head" eagle. Both have their original "anodized" scabbards and early nickel-silver hangers (non-snout nose).

Serrated tail

Sorry about the above scan. Let me try with some cropping. Here's the "smooth tail."

The other tm, etc.

Himmler dagger 2 w/serrated tail. Sorry, the above 2 photos are of this dagger. Tried to delete them, but it didn't work. This dagger does not photograph well, due to the original gray darkening in the etch.
