knife

A thread on a knife tag prompted me to visit Wittmann's site and once again he is selling the badgeless "DJ" knife (sometimes known as the "BDM" knife). The subject isn't new but when these knives start appearing again after an absence it is always worth reiterating past discussions. Anyway...

I have a HJ with a RZM issue tag on the scabbard. There is writing on the back of the tag that is inside the hanger snap but it is too faded to make out. Can anyone with a HJ with RZM issue tag tell me what is printed on the back of the tag ? Cheers , Ratler

Hello guys, I like to share some information I learned from an authority on HJ and other daggers. The guy is writing a reference book on heer daggers right now and soon that will be available. He buys daggers to make pictures of them and than he sells them. I bought some knives of him and they...

This HJ Knife is somewhat puzzling, and I would be grateful for opinions on it. The rivets are not domed, but could have been damaged or replaced I suppose. The diamond looks to be fitting a little too neatly into the serrations of the handle for my liking. The markings other than the motto were...

I have a question regarding the Gottlieb Hammersfahr. How difficult is it to find a non-early Gottlieb Hammersfahr (M7/67)? I've got an early one, but I wonder if the transitional/late Gottlieb Hammersfahr is quite rare. I've seen a couple of pics on the web. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi All, I am no expert, and need some advice. HJ dagger that I have access to, got RZM code 7/12 but makers mark Wusthof with logo on the opposite side. 7/12 is not the Wusthof code .....also it has the motto engraved on the blade but 1940 stamped on the ricasso. In all aspects it's a...

I will try to post pictures later . Found a HJ with motto on the blade , other side of blade has the round circle with RZM and under it the Schuttelhofer RZM number M 7/13. Then next to it A. Schuttelhofer & Co lengthwise on the blade. I have looked and cannot find another like this online. The...

Hi all...i have some concerns about this knife that appears to belong to the transitional period with faint motto. The maker mark is Franz Steinhoff and the blade shows the RZM symbol and 39 (the rzm code of the maker) without the M/7. Is it normal?? many thanks

Hi all...that's my new purchase...an early Hj knife produced by Knecht & co...in still decent conditions. Is this maker scarce in early period?? many thanks

Hi everyone I found a Tiger transitional knife, it does have some damage but still very attractive I think. I was hoping for some opinions on it, and what should I expect to pay for such a piece? Very hard to get in the UK as I have found. Thank you everyone.

i recently added this M7/66 eickhorn RZM dated 39 transitional knife to my HJ-knife collection,.i would love your thoughts on the scabbard spcifically.personally i think the hanger has been post war replaced & the origional scabbard re-furbished. the diamond & plate's are in great...

Hi, I'm new to collecting HJ knives. I'm a very sceptical buyer, and I've come across this knife. The RZM mark and the scabbard look like reproductions I've seen, and so I'm very wary of purchasing this knife. Do the experienced collectors and historians here think this is a fake/ modern...

I recently saw a Hitler Youth knife with a name engraved on the backside of the pommel at a show. Unfortunately did not get a chance to get pictures but was curious if anyone has seen anything like that, that was credible? Without proper documentation I realize it's impossible to know on a...

My latest HJ purchase was this nice P. Weyersberg knife. Hope you like it Nick

Hello everyone, this is a very interesting Hitler Youth knife. It has been modified to look more like a standard fighting knife. These modifications appear very old leading me to believe that they were done during the war. The blade appears to be transitional from 1936.The cross guard seems to...

Hello, I'm a relatively new collector of Hitler Youth items and have currently only made a few purchases with my limited knowledge. Primarily I collect the diamond insignia pins and knife gems of the Hitler Youth. However, there are two that I have in my collection that concern me where...
