188Lieut Posted December 26, 2015 Share #1 Posted December 26, 2015 Hi All, I was wondering if anyone could provide some information on this variation of what appears to be an SS dagger I found in my grandparent's attic while home for the holidays. My grandfather was an infantryman serving in the Rhineland during WWII. The blade itself includes the following proof marks: SS insignia; 188/35; and the encircled letters "RZM" as can be viewed in the image below. Thanks in advance for your insights.
