Combat boot knife or Stiefelmesser marked asw 42

Beautiful rare original combat boot knife or Nahkampfmesser or officially: Infanteriemesser 42. The knife is beautifully marked asw 42 which indicates production by E. & F. Horster & Co. Solingen in 1942. The knife is in good sharp condition. The wooden handle is nicely stamped with the number “837” and the blade is marked with the number “37” at the same side. Beautiful rare example which would be a perfect addition to any combat mannequin or focussed knives/bayonets collection!
