Hitler Youth Belt Buckle – Unissued with Tags
SOLD!This is a very nice WW2 Paul Cramer & Co (RZM M4/44) Hitler Youth Belt Buckle, with original tags still attached. The buckle itself shows signs of age, likely due to the type of metal used to manufacture these; they don’t stand up well to the elements.

WKC Army (Heer) Dagger with Portepee and Hanger
SOLD!A real find, this WKC maker WW2 Army Officer Dagger is all original, and straight from the son of the World War 2 veteran who brought it back.

The blade is immaculate, without a single notable flaw. It doesn’t get better than this!

German Bayonets
S/244 Mundlos German Combat Bayonet
SOLD!One of the nicest blades I’ve seen on a WWII bayonet. This Mundlos manufacturer coded combat bayonet retains 99.9% of its original bluing on the blade, something not often seen on such a relic. The markings on the blade include “S/244,G” on one side, and “9698” on the other. Although not matching (serial number “7949m”), the scabbard is in excellent condition, with 90 – 95% of its original finish in tact, and barely a scratch to note. The bakelite grips are stunning, with no cracks or chips. The black leather frog is not original to this bayonet, but added to complete the set, and sports the mark of Carl Hepting & Co.

WKC Kriegsmarine Navy Dagger – 2nd Model
SOLD!This German World War 2 Kriegsmarine Dagger just doesn’t get any better! Purchased directly from the Grandson of the vet who brought it back to the states after World War 2, the condition is exceptional, with no notable chips or cracks to the handle. The pommel is loose, but I believe it could be fixed without compromising the integrity of the dagger. The scabbard is of the hammered (pebbled) style, with a minor dent. The blade has a very nice, dark etched design that is absolutely exquisite.
