Description
This Heer (Army) Officer dagger set is in fine condition throughout and is a textbook Robert Klaas example. The pommel, ferrule and guards remain in very nice condition, with a fine patina over the silvering. The grip is a perfectly conditioned lighter orange color. The scabbard is a very nice example having all of its silvering, crisp bands, and good pebbling with no dents or damage. The throat is retained by a pair of dome head screws. The blade is a beautiful nickel plated example and would be in mint condition with plenty of original cross grain remaining, the blade is stamped with the kissing cranes trademark of the Klaas firm on the reverse ricasso and the original washer is in place. The dagger still has the original silver portepee knot attached to the grip, the scabbard also has a beautiful pair of dagger hangers still attached as well. Just a fantastic and textbook complete Klaas dagger set here by a rather hard to find manufacture!
