Alfred Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 I wanted to start some research about soviet parade daggers (Land-, Navy- and Air-Force dagger only) In most cases on one side of the blade is the producer (ИМЗ, ZIK and Bulat) and the year of the production (1945 - 1991) On the other side is a number. Is the number related to the dagger produced in this year or in total ? And is there a correlation between the numbers of the three daggers or they a seperatly counted? Due to wearing regulations Navy daggers are most common one, than Land-Forces and AirForce daggers are the rarest ones. best regards and thanks Andreas

Alfred Posted November 30, 2010 Author Posted November 30, 2010 any more data are welcome thanks Andreas
Phil2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Hello! My Navy dagger was made by Bulat in 1992, and its number is 257652. I wish this will be useful to you!
Zaim Qyteza Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Hi Alfred, I have 4 pieces of Soviet Navy and 2 pieces of Soviet Air Force, all pre-1960. But only one of them has the mumbers and letters. It is Air Force ZIK 1951 / Π-N 434. Why the others are w/o any number or sigla? Regards, Zaim
Alfred Posted September 10, 2012 Author Posted September 10, 2012 I also saw some dagger without number and producing year, but aways with a producer mark like SIK. I have no clue why are there no numbers. But maybe just forgotten. Can you post some pictures of your daggers without numbers? best regards Andreas
USSR Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Hi all, I have a navy 'Bulat' dagger here dated 1989 and a army ZIK dagger without a year. Are these combinations even possible? Thanks!
Alfred Posted October 31, 2017 Author Posted October 31, 2017 Yes, it is possible, Daggers without year are produced in 1956.
USSR Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Just wondering; is this one possible? It isn't is the excel sheet.
Alfred Posted October 31, 2017 Author Posted October 31, 2017 How many ribbons are in the state seal at the top of the dagger? Does the dagger have a catch button? best regards Andreas
USSR Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I count 11 (including the horizontal one). No button.
USSR Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Can you guys help me by telling to which period dagger this navy belt belongs? It is made of real metal thread. Thnx!
