Wouldn't mind having either the blade or the Luger... if they didn't have the SA insignia on them.

Ah so that's why no SA insignia? That is what the problem with modern germany is - they try to hide their past history; rather than embracing it and learning from it so past mistakes are not repeated. No matter what country one is from.. there is always past history one is not proud of . The trick is to learn from it and embrace it so it will not happen again; not bury it under the rug and pretend it never happened.

I'm not saying hide the country's history; that's not what I'm saying at all. To hide history would be to invite a repeat of it. I'm just saying that I personally wouldn't want to own something with any kind of Nazi insignia on it.

ah, well you couldn't own the luger either than. 1939-1945 have arsenal proofs with swastikas.

I know. That's why I'm saying I wish they didn't have to be marked. Oh, well, I don't even know if I could ever find one anyways.
