Original German WWII Luftwaffe Gravity Knife by Paul Weyersberg & Co. of Solingen with Partial Waffen Proof

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. This very nice example was produced by Paul Weyersberg & Co. of Solingen, who were one of the major producers of this knife during WWII. The company "Sword-and-Wreath" logo is etched into the blade, as well as ROSTFREI (rust free) indicating stainless steel construction. Solingen is known as the "City of Blades" and has a centuries-old history of edged weapon production.

This example has fine, stainless steel components. There is a number 7 and also a partial Waffen Eagle on the base of the marlin spike. This is the standard Luftwaffe inspection stamp style used throughout the war. The knife is fully functional, with all parts intact and no springs broken. The blade release functions properly, and the marlin spike locks into place.

The blade of this knife has been sharpened, however the markings are still clear, and the blade has much of the original factory cross grain visible. The blade is still quite sharp at present. The grip plates are of walnut with the standard four retaining rivets. These plates are in good condition throughout, with denting and other marks on the grips from use and storage.

A great condition Luftwaffe Gravity Knife from the storied "City of Blades"! Ready to display!
