Need help! German Dagger fighting knife ??? Help

I aquired this today, cannot find it on the sites, looks to me like a fighting knife with the skull crusher and size. Anyone know anything about this knife? Either way, what did it have for a sheath or scabb? Help here.
Nearly 10″ overall, stag handle, 4 brass pins, and stamped: made in Germany. I think it may be ww1.

2 ss visor caps for viewing…

Ok, I'm looking at these 2 caps, and hoping that they are authentic, before i try and get them.

I really like the Black Allgemeine SS, with the owners name, and that it says " DACHAU " in the name tab also.

The Waffen SS cap has what i think is original insignia, and the name tab says the it belonged to a member of the LAH -SS.

Please let me know what you all think.

Thanks
Brian

For sale: PPD-40 Parts Kit

Gentlemen and Ladies:

PPD-40 Parts gun

I recently purchased what I thought was a legal to own Dewat PPD40 however after calling BATF I found it was an unregistered Dewat and therefore I had to cut it :weep:or surrender it :weep:and so to keep it from being a loss I cut it:o(. All parts are there except the firingpin assembly. The bolt was welded as well as the barrel. I have the following: Both stocks, trigger assembly, 2 parts of the mag well, bolt, barrel and barrel shroud, all associated pins, most of the reciever and the little circular thingy that allows feeding of the rounds with its associated pin.

I am asking 3200.00 however will consider all offers.
Just reply to this.

M35 “Normandy camo”

I am thinking about buying this helmet. What do you guys think about it? And if it's authentic what would it be worth?

The decals look like they have been uncovered post war, also I think there was chicken wire attached.

My Full SA Rohm

Hello,

I inherited my collection of WW2 memorabilia about 5 years ago (some items earlier) from my grandfather. Each piece was directly brought back to the U.S. by my grandfather at the end of the war.

One of the edged weapons that he brought back was an SA Rohm dagger (made by Eickhorn). I just started learning about the history of this knife over the past few days (from posting it on another site, google-searches, etc.). I knew that this knife was somewhat special because my grandfather told me (before he died) that Rohm was executed. What I didn’t know until a few days ago, and what I’m pretty sure my grandfather never knew, is the information about the grinding of the inscription.

Anyway, I’ve kept it in pretty good condition over the years. Knowing what I know now, I wish I would have oiled it and treated it more like a diamond years ago (as I will from now on). Enjoy the pictures and let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Gaines

Question Panzer Badge Info

I picked this up from a friend that said he got this from a vet. He had a box of other items as well, I only picked this one up so far. It has a raised "W" in the back. Looks pretty nice. Any info anyone can add would be appreciated.

Hey guys, I am just curious, Do any of you have any militaria from WWI-era Palestine? (Great Arab Revolt).

My great grandfather ws in it and he supposedly had a dozen turkish helmets that have vanished over the years. I would just like to see what you all have : )

Bought today for £15

Hi all,
Got this lot today for less than £15 :D All of it, apart from the table and the 2 pounder shell, the 2 pounder head was included in the deal cool militaria.
There is a couple of cases that I am not sure of :confused:
Any thoughts would be greatly recieved :D
Regards to all, Simon.
ps:- I know some of the items, holster, spares kit from tank, RAF dog tags, etc are not being shown, yet, in the right part of the forum. I bought the whole lot together and most of it is ammo related :)
