Description

WW2 used Trench knife personalized with SS runes roundel from an SS dagger added during the period.  Appears to have an imperial era inspection stamp on the blade but no other markings 

Blade appears very clean with just the tiniest dots of tarnishing at the edge. 

Scabbard is free of dents with some pain scuffs and loss.   Leather hanger has come cracks and the closure snap includes the snowflake design commonly seen on these knives.

The grips and tang show some patina and minor wear and the SS roundel appears clean.
