Raw materials and production time had increasingly become critical and decisive factors in the course of the Second World War. Therefore, the Army Ordnance Office was looking for a successor to the MG-34, which was already convincing in its function, but took up too much time and material due to its complex production. Almost trouble-free function and firing accuracy in all weather conditions, the change of hot-fired barrels within seconds and a cadence of 1,500 rounds per minute (25 rounds/second) established the reputation of the newly developed and optimised MG-42. In a slightly modified form, the MG-42 is still the standard MG of the German army today as MG 3. Rare originals from the Second World War fetch between USD 40,000 and 60,000 at Rock Island Auctions.
The blade is made of N690 and is ground off on both sides, while the dagger's toggle and pommel are made of solid stainless steel. The pommel incorporates the cooling fins and gas outlets of the recoil amplifier (actually a combined component with the functions of recoil amplifier, flash hider and barrel guide sleeve) as a design element. Nevertheless, here too, form followed function, for the grooves increase the grip of the dagger in the reverse grip. The toggle and pommel seamlessly hold the barrel-shaped roll of oak, which automatically centres itself in the hand due to its shape. The dagger is equipped with a quality sheath of dark brown leather with belt loop and place reinforcement. Handmade in the Boker Manufactory in Solingen.

The history of Boker can be traced back to the 17th Century. By the 1800s the German tool maker was producing swords and other blades for use in various European wars. In the 1860s the company had split, with part of the family emigrating and setting up factories in America. The German and American factories produced similar products, and both used the “Tree Brand” logo, representing the giant chestnut tree that was at the front of the original Boker factory in Remscheid, Germany in the 17th Century.
