Great Collectors never die. They live on in the beautiful things they've collected and those they've sold to over the years.

Just finished boarding up the house waiting for hurricane Ian. Nice to sit down take a relaxing break, have a cocktail and watch Mr Whitman open his treasures. The best part of my day so far. Your fan from St Petersburg Florida

[@dunkirchen1940]

Ob's reaction when the eagle dropped... That was a hoot!

[@gebox2637]

Never long enough videos I was starting to have withdrawals from not seeing a new video. I cant get enough of this hobby. See ya at the SOS. 😊

[@jackdarbyshire5888]

Just in time to spend a hour watching what i love over some fresh brewed coffee ☕

[@jimrutherford2773]

Your unboxings have become addicting. The best compliment to a KZbinr.

The paper bag for that Olympic dagger says it's a "Fahrtenmesser!" If I eat too many beans I am a "Fahrten" also!

[@billyg.6482]

Another terrific video Tom, really missed your weekly updates.

[@ar6985]

This is perfect for the lunch hour.

Great you're back..... FInally!!!!

[@TheArizonan]

Shouldn't these daggers that are in almost mint condition be in protective cases and not thrown in a box with a bunch of other daggers on top scratching them up?

[@АндрейБогданов-ь9ц]

Интересно, как всегда, interesting as usual !

Seven Times. What IS your Favorit dagger Gruß Felix From Düsseldorf Germany mr.wittmann Sir..

[@WittmannAntiqueMilitaria]

I'm sorry it's taken so long to answer your question, Felix. Tom reads these comments every day but he doesn't really know how to reply to them; sending him an email is the best (and really only) way to get questions answered. I just went to Tom's desk and demanded an answer, and after some thought he said his favorite pieces generally are Naval Honor daggers.

[@felixortmann5174]

[@allenj4kite]

Tom, you are my go to guy for anything dagger related, your videos and books are lifesavers! But please get the desk set, prize box and cuff links double checked! To my eye they look incredibly dubious???

[@ReinhardAusDieNiederlande]

Calling a WWI German trench knife a "junk'er", i guess seeing all those polished daggers and swords every day makes you look down upon these trench knives that might look rough but they are original and in most cases been through hell. I collect German trench knives and photos where a soldier is sporting one on his belt, boot or hand.

[@Phronsias1]

The HJ Olympic daggers are Controversial, do your research if you are thinking of buying one.

[@brittakriep2938]

This knife , no dagger , is in Germany known as ,Fahrtenmesser'. Into 1980s such knifes had been used by Pfadfinder / boy scout groups, you could see this knifes in the show windows of german arms/ knife shops until about 2000, now rarely. So i think , there are falsifications, using ,Fahrtenmesser' blades from 1950s to 1970s.

[@Phronsias1]

@@brittakriep2938 I agree

[@ghosted2187]

Another great video. Tom where can I get a pen like the one you use. I seen a video of you writing an autograph and I like the way it looks.

[@splitwindowman]

Love these videos. Wish I was a millionaire so I could afford to buy this stuff. Since I'm rather new to the hobby, can someone explain to me what RZM means or stands for? Thanks.

[@that85guy96]

Stands for ReichsZeugMeisterei. You will see the RZM letters capitalized in the name. It was basically the office that stamped their seal of approval on all things Nazi party related including but not limited to Uniforms, uniform accessories, equipment, edged weapons etc. Hope that helps!

[@alexanderfaust4192]

If I'm not mistaken the hole in the top of the rectangular object on that desk set is to hold an old school quill traditionally made from a molted feather. I'm sure it was more for looks than functionality as all other kinds of fountain pens had been produced by that time (including pens made by Montblanc, who opened their doors in Germany in 1906).

[@jacobhiles1372]

I wish I wasn’t so shy I wanted to talk to you at the the show I know your very nice the both of you but I wish you all the best of health to you both anyway

I wish I had at least one German knife, from WWII!!! With 30$ in my wallet, and 8$ on my Bank account, only thing I can do, is dreaming....
