Blown away, especially since I'm a new "Whitmann Cellar Dweller" and I've known of Lemmy's collection and read his autobiography. Ozzy Osbourne is another big collector who would trade or give German WWII memorabilia back and forth with Lemmy. It's amazing hearing he was your customer after all that I've read, and also that you're the one who appraised the collection! All I've heard was that it was among of the most prized collections in the states, there's been a ton of interest in acquiring it, and that it was put into storage with no plans yet to sell it. I imagine it's north of $1M, if not more.

Thanks mr.wittman you make my day

[@joshuastroyer9662]

Everybody misses Lemmy he was a legend , I've often wondered what happened to his collection since his passing.great story sir

[@dnf7778]

Very cool story about Lemmy. Maybe show us a dagger from his collection next week

[@mmotorhead]

Wow Mr Wittmann ... what a nice storie. I remember when I emailed you asking if you knew Lemmy´s collection and your nice reply telling me about his collection. Really nice details , thanks for sharing. I was very fortunate to have my gift, which I gave to Lemmy in 2011 here in Brazil, to see it hung on his living room together with his daggers, 24 framed patches of S S units division. He was really Over the Top.

[@akejohansson2860]

Very cool Mr Wittman👍 Lemmy tearing it up in the afterlife🤘

[@WreckingCrew666]

Story about Lemmy just proves that very very different people get connected through their interest in history & surely collecting!

[@jakebeck4389]

Wow! Another amazing story Tom! You should really do a book of your life it would be a great read!

[@CONGRYU]

Great story sir !! I really enjoy your videos !! Thank you ! And please tell more stories !

[@euroyank860]

My man doesn't disappoint !!!

[@csaint6780]

I enjoy all you videos Tom, but I really loved the Lemmy story, thanks!I I was kind of hoping to be able to buy a piece that Lemmy owned, that would have been a bonus, RIP Lemmy.

[@jimrutherford2773]

Another fantastic unboxing. The best German militaria showcase on KZbin,

[@boydendishman9151]

Amazing lemmy was a great and had a nice collection

[@thilgu]

Awesome story. I have been a fan of Motorhead for many years. May Lemmy R.I.P.

[@tompniewski5781]

Another great video Tom!! Keep them coming!!

[@ronklug6395]

As a huge Motorhead fan thanks for sharing that Lemmy story. And what a great daggers at the end of this unboxing.

[@Wolshanze]

All ways Great to see you maestro !

[@robertemmenegger6716]

Original lyrics hand written on paper from popular rock artists can garner quite a sum. You may have thrown away some potential big bucks!

[@kennethrouse7942]

Another fun time in "Mr. Wittmann's Neighborhood!" And that AS Himmler piece is eye-popping! 👍

[@skat4035]

Love the lemmy story…and man the daggers you got in are fantastic …thanks for sharing this 👍🇩🇰

[@mickosullivan3827]

Good health Mr Wittman.

[@larryburwell8550]

Well Tom love the stories and this one about lemmy from motorhead was one of the best for me as I played in a rock band in the 70s as well. I've sold militaria to rock stars too not of lemmys Calibre though. Great story of 400 daggers is kinda overwhelming. Loved all the unboxings but that last box those 6 daggers are off the charts almost like time travel to 1940 and pick them off the shelves condition. Thanks for sharing remarkable item. I loved the video

[@lieuwehofstra5007]

Lemmy was all about rock & roll, I did see one of his concerts in Groningen in the 90's..... bleeding ears , a good day out !

[@connorfulkerson127]

Absolutely stellar video! Love the stories, so keep them coming!

[@dnf7778]

My God those last daggers look like they were made yesterday, incredible!

[@1369buddy]

You win some, you lose some, I dont wanna live forever. Imagine Tom at the Rainbow. Playing the poker machine. In Lems corner. Drinking a jack & coke. Great Lemmy story

[@simoncooper913]

Great story. I still say this is mainstream tv. Brilliant content.

[@madaboutmilitaria3630]

I didn’t shake his hand🤣good choice. I can’t believe people put so many valuable daggers in the post🤯

[@rocco74superhuman45]

Lemmy has long collected Nazi memorabilia, and has made no excuses for his hobby. In a recent interview he explained his fascination for the sharp togs of Hitler's misadventures: "I'll tell you something about history. From the beginning of time, the bad guys always had the best uniforms. Napoleon, the Confederates, the Nazis. They all had killer uniforms. I mean, the SS uniform is fucking brilliant! They were the rock stars of that time. What you're gonna do? They just look good. Don't tell me, I'm a Nazi 'cause I have uniforms. In 1967 I had my first black girlfriend and a lot of more ever since then. I just don't understand racism, I never thought it was an option."

[@davidthompson62]

Nothing like a good smoke and a bit of “the spirits” in a coke or Diet Coke while looking over collectibles!!

[@derekstynes9631]

I am Suspicious of Rare Daggers in Such Great condition !

[@igorsvacic217]

Lemmy was a kind kind VERY kind soul.

[@radiodalbunker8603]

Iloved Lemmy and Motorhead! God belss Lemmy..and of course he was a great collectors of dagger..and a passionate of history of ww2.

[@bigb.2511]

Man, these are awesome pieces!!! One question to the dagger lord, I have a original Luftwaffe etched parade bayonet mady by Pack. However, it does not have offset rivets and it's not the pioneer version. Can you maybe explain how this could occure?

[@raivonraj]

Good work.👀

[@t.jjohnson6317]

[@averagejoeschmoe9186]

The Emedals auction has that kind of DLV for sale right now, but from the maker Weyersberg.

[@rjb6327]

"STORY TIME WITH TOM". 😃

[@sidlawman2]

Thanks again team W, absolutely riveting. Your videos are so many miles better viewing than the collective horse shit emanating from the likes of Amazon and Netflix. 👌😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@michalprokop2685]

Hi , Super !

[@rheidtech]

God Bless Lemmy 💪⚔

[@allanesquivelrios9065]

Lemmy !! Lemmy !! ✊✊🗡🗡⚔

[@larrysingleton2864]

I was hoping he would have laid those first three daggers side by side for comparison. Apparently there were some differences I would have liked to have seen. Bummer.

[@davidanderson7782]

Love the Lemmy story, any pics of his collection? Did you see the Ace of spades?

[@UrmasSalu-ls3yo]

Great!

[@davidthompson62]

Could anyone tell me how much a SA dagger with Rohm’s inscription still on it worth?

[@rocco74superhuman45]

The end is mine ;-)))

[@gebox2637]

Do you have any daggers that you know came out out of his collection for sale?

[@МуратХосаев]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@ProfessorMcGuigan]

Ov - what is your name and how do you spell it? Your father rocks and DTC is my favorite thing!

[@isrstrategies]

Lemmy Tell you a story

[@isrstrategies]

I would’ve told the people hey listen I had no idea the size of the collection I thought maybe it would be 50 or 60 knives what you have he has gonna take me days and days to finish not to mention I have to spend the money to stay in the hotel all those days I would’ve told him listen I can’t do this for $10,000 I have to adjust my estimate

[@manfredpfeiffer2632]

Super habe seid 1945 Orginale aber in einen besseren Zustand
