Killer Army Officer’s Dagger by Puma – D889

Too many humdrum run of the mill Heer daggers out there for you? Sink you teeth in to this baby!

The grip to this dagger has turned absolutely dark pumpkin orange in the most beautiful way imaginable. That is, save for a little speck up at the top. The Trolon material is in fantastic condition both fore and aft, void of any splits, cracks, or missing material. You no doubt have notice the hardware by now, consisting of the crossguard and pommel primarily. Yup, that’s correct, this Heer dagger has been equip with stunning aluminum fittings. As shown, the detail to both components is absolutely outrageous! It appears that the initials J M are lightly scratched at the reverse of the crossguard. Though those are my own initials, this dagger actually belongs to my son. The irony

An excellent scabbard accompanies this dagger. It remains straight as an arrow, void of any hits, bends, dings, or dog legs. A rich dark patina has covered both obverse and reverse of this shell, beautifully contrasting the hilt fittings.  Both scabbard bands are in place, and hold the hanger rings properly. It’s interesting to note that the reverse of the lower band has what looks like a thin bit of casting material that wasn’t trimmed off before this component was sweated to the shell. In any event, it’s obvious that it’s been there forever. Lastly, 2 dome head screws hold the throat in place.

And we get to the blade. I have a one word description in regards to that: WUNDERBARRRRRRR!!!

I honesty should stash this gorgeous Army into my collection. It is a honey!   SOLD
