Hello Capt.,
This old gentleman/veteran/Mentor brought this particular dagger home after having dispatched the owner a couple seconds before it could have gone the other way.....knew this story but I had never seen & had no need to see the SS dagger. The serial #s on it are clear as are other markings. God bless these men, my relatives, friends and all the others who come so close to true evil every day.
Best to 'ya & yours!
