E-432c SA Dagger With Hanger by RZM M7/33 (F. W.
Holler)
Although this is a RZM piece, the construction is of the highest
quality, while remaining in very collectible condition. In addition to the
condition, the Holler RZM SA Dagger is a very difficult item to locate,
especially on today’s market! The crossguards are the nickel plated
variety still retaining a collectible appearance. As is the case with most
nickel plated SA examples, the plating shows minor lifting/pimpling in and
around the upper and lower obverse and reverse grip areas. Upon closer
examination, they are internally stamped with the caster’s mark E.W. Not
a common finding on RZM daggers, but 100% correct! The grip is a quality
item showing minimal wear/age. It has a dark mahogany color with a very
nice vertical grain in addition to having a medium contour ridge. The
grip-to-crossguard fit is very nice. The grip eagle is the plated copper
variety showing much wear to the plating, grading 30% exposing the beautiful
copper base metal. The eagle is the high necked style. The SA runes
button is mint having a slightly convex shape. The blade is bright and
shiny retaining all of its crossgraining. The blade is etched with a very
crisp SA motto “Alles fur Deutschland”, or translated “All for Germany”,
having nearly 100% of the background darkening. The tip and both edges are
crisp. The runner marks are the norm for a Political dagger. There
are a few minor smudges to both sides, but nothing to loose sleep over!
The reverse ricasso is matching etched with the Holler small closed RZM circle
and beneath is the maker’s code M 7/33. The scabbard shell is totally
straight throughout with the exception of a very, very tiny dimple to the middle
of the reverse side. The original factory paint is the chocolate brown
color, grading 99%! Beautiful! The mounts retain a very nice
bright/shiny, nickel plating, grading 100%! The four domehead side screws
are intact showing mild turning signs. A VERY NICE RZM dagger! A
MUST for the SA type collector! Strong excellent.
