You have a sword with the INITIALS "R.S." ?

There is absolutely no hope whatsoever of attribution based on that.

Could well be.

But with no proof, there's

... no proof.

Could just as well have been Zahlmeister der Reserve Richard Sage, or Stabsapotheker d.R. Richard Sack

or

absolutely thousands of anybodys in the German army whose initials were "R.S."

so-- as somebody who has spent decades in the Research Mines

all I can say is

don't lose any sleep over it. :beer:

This might be Hitler's dagger,the initials are the same and it did come from a Vet who got it in Germany.

Without real documented proof,it would be nearly impossible to attribute an artifact to it's original owner just by initials alone.
