FINE POST WWII GERMAN BOY SCOUT KNIFE IN ORIGINAL METAL SHEATH

9 5/8" in total length. Beautiful uncleaned, as found condition.

After WWII, there was an excess of 'Hitler Youth', or 'Hitlerjugend' knives that were rebranded with this green fleur de lis emblem for use among German boy scouts instead. Also known as a fahrtenmesser. The metal sheath is original.

More information on these 'HJ' style knives from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum.
