The SA Honour Dagger (Ehrendolch) occupied the highest tier of SA personal regalia — presented by senior leadership to individuals of particular distinction, these pieces were personalised with a dedication inscription in flowing cursive script on the blade, making each one unique to its original recipient. Where the standard SA dagger was a symbol of membership, the Honour Dagger was a symbol of personal recognition from the organisation’s leadership.
The construction reflects this elevated status at every point. The ebony grip — darker and more refined than the standard hardwood — is fitted with a distinctive oak-leaf-decorated nickel crossguard of the characteristic asymmetrical SA form, with a suspension ring at the upper quillon for portière carry. The blade bears a flowing cursive inscription in the style of period originals, with the SA eagle medallion confirming the piece’s organisational identity.
The black-lacquered steel scabbard with nickel-plated oak-leaf-decorated locket and chape mirrors the quality of the hilt fittings, creating a visually coherent and historically accurate ensemble.
Deepeeka’s SA Ehrendolch is a historically accurate replica produced for collectors of Third Reich period militaria and students of 20th century German history. It is supplied without prohibited symbols in compliance with legal requirements in various jurisdictions.
