[Grade] E- [Item #] D215 [Description] 
3 piece Luftwaffe Carving Set by Carl Eickhorn of Solingen. This set is a rare find indeed. A bit worn, but beautiful non the less and an awesome edition to any Luftwaffe dagger collection. All 3 pieces are stainless steel with beautifully aged solid trolon (aka celluloid) grips and nickel fittings. The pommel caps resemble dagger grip rings trimmed with oak leaves while the hilt fittings are stamped with a floral pattern. The service fork is near mint with no damage other than a few age spots on the grip. The steel shows a bit more wear with several small chips in the grip. The knife shows the most wear and appears to have been repaired. The grip has one chip on the reverse and doesn't sit tight in the lower fitting. The blade shows a lot of use, but it's still fairly sharp with a couple dings near the ricasso. The Eickhorn trade mark squirrel is stamped into the blade on the reverse. It's so worn you can barely see it, but if you look hard you can see the outline of his tail and a few letters in "SOLINGEN"
