As I usually do I want to share my latest add to my collection with all the rest of you collectors out there.
Here`s my 2nd luft by E & F Hörster. I especially like the grip-colour on this one. Nice lemon-yellow. Fits perfectly in between my other daggers.

Congratulations on a Very nice luft, I should have liked that one myself.

Thanks a lot Landser.
Words like that warms a collectors heart.
I prefirm quality before quantity and I`m in no rush to fill up my "boys-room" in a hurry just to own a lot of daggers.
In time I`m sure that the right ones will come by.

Yes I quite agree with you, always buy nice quality & you will enjoy them more & find them easier to sell if your interest shifts. I actually like daggers that fall in the exc ++ range. The reason being that I like pieces that were worn & not lifted from a shop or factory premises. I can understand why some might like "mint" items but to me they are devoid of any historical attachment. When selling some daggers recently I actually decided to part with an unissued navy dagger & kept a well carried piece in preference.

Enjoy your collecting, take your time & pick your pieces carefully.

A Screamer, my 2nd favourite after nice armies, but then again I'm poor and boring.
I really, really, would like a minty conditioned SS ehrendegen and I do know where one is available, unfortunately what with 3 grown up kids and 6 grandkids I cant afford it. However, you are such a nice bunch of guys on here and I'm sure you would all love to see an old geezer die happy I'm sure that Dave H would pass on all your contributions to 'Nolans Dream' fund

As they often say on here 'thanx' in advance

Collecting daggers has allways been an expencive hobby, but it`s also a question of priority. Cut back on some luxury expences and save a few dollars each month. That way you`ll soon have enough cash to fullfill your dream.

After all, if they were cheap everyone would have a lot of them and it wouldnt be anything special about them.

Allso its better to buy good examples that cost a few dollars more than to buy cheap crappy ones.

Best of luck!

Nice to see more daggers coming to the "High North"

Cheers,

Thanks a lot Trigger.
Yes, its about time we start bringing something into Norway instead of just sending everything out.
German daggers are such a nice collecting area too, you just gotta love them.
