Rare Transitional Anton Wingen Hitler Youth Knife 1938

An exceptional transitional Hitler Youth knife manufactured by Anton Wingen Jr of Solingen, this early etched blade example bears the motto `Blut und Ehre! and the extremely rare transitional period RZM etching (later stamped and relocated to forte) with makers code M7/51 for Wingen 1938.
The nickel plating is all present and bright , small bruising to end of pommel but with no loss to finish, good lozenge/diamond with typical slight movement, stunning Bakelite slab grips and held firm by dome rivets.
The black painted steel scabbard is also in excellent condition with only a couple of light scratches/marks on rear face, leather hanging loop again in wonderful condition, internal cotton faced spring remains strong.
The best example that I have encountered and a rare type.
A good investment piece. Free postage.
