FAQs

A Kriegsmarine dress dagger is a ceremonial sidearm worn by officers and officer candidates of the German Navy during the Second World War as part of their formal dress uniform.

These daggers were typically constructed using gilded brass or nickel-plated steel fittings, etched steel blades, and cream-coloured celluloid or plaster-filled wire-wrapped grips.

Authentic examples feature precise maker marks near the ricasso, correct weight and balancing, sharp lightning-bolt engraved details on the scabbard, and natural age patina on metal surfaces without modern casting seams.

Naval dress daggers are best presented mounted inside a custom felt-lined shadow box or elevated on a dedicated acrylic stand placed within a study bookshelf or cabinet.

Maintain metal components by applying a thin layer of acid-free microcrystalline wax, avoiding direct contact with bare hands to prevent oils from causing oxidisation on metal surfaces.
