If it was an SS dagger then it will likely be much more rare than a standard issue knife for the German Army.

If it is really from the SS then it will look like this: http://germandressdaggers.com/SA_SS_NSKK_check.jpg

There are basically two types of SS daggers, the early maker marked and the RZM type.
A trully near mint early SS EM will sell for about $ 5000 USD and $ 3500 USD for the RZM type.

It looks more like this; but is not a copy or replica

You need to dig up some provenance on the dagger. Get provenance, you get more money.

The above cannot be overstated. There are so many replicas/counterfeits that provenance or background can support that it is original and also add to the selling price. Taking the extra time will be worth it.

Are you able to post pics?
