This dagger was given to me by my grandfather who was a Tank Colonel for the US Army.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
The dagger features a roughly, 10 3/8″, (26.5 cm), long, drop forged, steel construction, nickel/silver plated, stiletto style blade with a flat central ridge and a full length, including the hilt, of roughly, 14 1/2″, (37 cm). The blade is in overall very good, clean condition with light to moderate scabbard runner marks and most of the original cross-graining is still visible. The reverse ricasso is well marked with the deeply, acid etched, manufacturer’s name, logo and script, consisting of a seated squirrel, clutching a downward pointing sword with the name and location, “Eickhorn Solingen”, positioned beneath the squirrel and the script, “Original”, positioned above the squirrel. Of Note: This version of Eickhorn’s logo was utilized circa 1935-1941
