$20000.00 is the price of this dagger! I've never seen one of these before and was wondering if anyone knows anything about it? Good, bad or what? Thanks

I can't say either way, I was just send a picture of one of these coming from Sweeden. An odd bird, Krupp was a major player so its hard call. Perhaps if better pictures were taken it may aid in figuring this dagger out.

Krupp. World renowned for their Steel armaments. Likely the largest company producing STEEL CANNONS and other STEEL ITEMS.

I wonder why they would make ANYTHING from brass.

Personally if I am spending $1000 or more on anything, I want some real confirmational information.

No self respecting Nazi would have been caught dead wearing that thing!

I am not saying any of these people are right or wrong, but in 1 search of 'Krupp Dagger' on Google, I found this in seconds...

a. a long discussion of a similar piece and mention of another being on ebay, as well as comments about MORE of these 'rare' daggers..Here:

http://daggers.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/812094573/m/4290061794

Also in that lot was a link to these extremely better photos of what in my opinion is an outright fantasy piece....here:

Which some poor deluded (Or lucky, brilliant, and better informed than the rest of us!) Plopped nearly $900, plus commissions and shipping down to add to his no doubt spectacular collection.
