It is a fine piece of modified steel art :relax
Do you own it?
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
The Who, Won't get fooled again

Looks like it was customized with a button and a kopek. I guess you use what you got around.

Not really, but I'd like to know what you think it's value might be?

Inscription reads: "For Bravery".
However, I am not buying the history of a pilot being shot down with this dagger...
These daggers were for parade use, and not something you'd wear in a plane.
Of course it could have been part of the cargo in a plane, for someone transferring somewhere.
Very interesting piece!!
Value, who knows??
An unaltered original german 1.st luft dagger would get anywhere from 400-1500USD depending on condition. Condition is everything.
This one also has an altered(shortened) chain hanger assembly.
Best regards,
Tor-Helge
