German Luftwaffe 2nd Model dagger with black grip by Robert Klass Solingen

German Luftwaffe 2nd Model dagger with black grip by Robert Klass Solingen.  Klass is famous for using black trylon grips that were painted white.  People removed the paint from the army daggers and called them Railroad daggers. I believe these grips were originally painted white and also removed later.  They call this a funeral grip.  Beautiful Klass dagger . The patina is a bit uneven with the aluminum grip fittings shiny, the crossguard less shiny, and the scabbard with bluing in tact.  Excellent ++ plated blade with small Robert Klass TM.  Neaar mint Deluxe hangers included.
