E.GERMAN `NVA 2842` POST-WAR LW PARATROOPER GRAVITY KNIFE
Click above image for full size photos below.
Outside has the look of a 3rd Reich early done knife but not polished bright, has raw steel fittings instead. Nice looking wood grips just like an original & held by 4-steel rivets. Not a take-down model w/stamped title issue marks to bolster that has a loose single rivet instead of normal 2, also has seperation crack along both sides from loose fit. Polished bright release lever & unmarked steel blade rattles in place when extended, normal owner sharpening marks. Unmarked steel marlin spike w/bent tip & riveted lanyard loop is also bent. Working post-war variation showing honest use! The 2006 Pattarozzi `LW Gravity Knife` book didn`t note this model for the National Volks Armee, RARE ONE? Condition: 7 Weight: 0.70 lbs
