Description

M38 DRK (Deutsches Rotes Kreuz) hewer for NCOs.

Handle with black bakelite grip scales and smooth grip on the reverse. No chips but there is a crack to the rear grip. Fittings show minor wear and pock marks. Screws unopened. 

Blade: Nickel-plated saw-back blade without markings is overal nice with some marks of tarnishing and glide marks.

Scabbard: Black-painted steel scabbard with nickel-plated fittings. About 70% of original finish remains and one screw on the chape is missing.

Also included is the leather frod which matches the overall condition of the dagger.   Appears to be hand marked with the initials of the owner "HK" on the reverse of the frog.  The leather appears solid but shows some seperation of the seams.
