German SA M-1933 Officer's Dagger 'Carl Eickhorn'

In a very good condition a very nice M-1933 Sturmabteilung Officer's Dagger (Dienstdolch).
This example is made by Carl Eickhorn from Solingen.
The grip is near perfect as far as these daggers go, with normal traces of use.
The SA roundel shows no loss of enamel.
The grip eagle is the aluminum type (correct) and shows only minimal wear to the normal areas of the wreath and wings, but still retains at least 98% of the original factory detail.
The upper and lower guards are the plated type (which is correct) and both show the same level of modest wear.
The lower crossguard is SA Region marked with 'Wf' indicating use by a member of SA-Gruppe Westfalen!
At the top of the grip the pommel nut shows no signs of tampering, and no swirl marks on the upper surface of the guard either.
The blade has on the front the motto in a light gray tone and surface of the blade is virtually flawless, save the typically scabbard runner marks that we see on all SA daggers.

The scabbard comes in a matching condition with the rest of the dagger. The brown painted scabbard body shows some minor use scratches, but has managed to retain most of the original paint.
The plated fittings show the same tone as the guards and are virtually without flaw. This includes the tip ball, which shows absolutely no signs of any damage. All fitting screws are secure and show no signs of tampering.
In another word this is a very nice early example of an original M33 SA Officer's Dagger.
