Description
No TM. Aluminum hilt fittings show almost no wear/age with excellent detail to the pommel with Customs pattern oak leaves and crossguard with up-turned wing tips on Customs style langet eagle. The leather grip shows virtually no surface wear and no significant loss of color, and is complete with tight spongy aluminum wire wrap. Plated blade grades near EX+ showing little surface wear/runner marks along with minimal speckling throughout, a couple of nicks on cutting edge of blade and tip of blade appears intact. Blade tang is marked #96. Leather-covered scabbard shows light wear primarily to the sides of the lower leather section. The nickel-plated fittings show almost no wear and are complete with undamaged headless retaining screws. As is correct for period produced Land Customs daggers, the incised decorative lines on the fittings appear only on the obverse surface. A rare dagger in truly excellent condition!
