HJ leader's dagger made by Hörster, Solingen. Clean etched blade showing the HJ motto "Blut und Ehre". No damage to the tip. Maker marked RZM M7/36 which is the code for Hörster.
The leather of the scabbard is postwar applied and professionally restored. All metal parts of the scabbard show the same sort out patina. Metal wire grip with signs of use. Zinc cross guard and top pommel with HJ diamond.
Overall a fine and rare dagger with restored scabbard.
