Third Reich Teno Officer’s Dagger with Knot — Authentic German WWII Collectible

This Third Reich Teno Officer’s Dagger with knot is a striking and authentic example of a rare edged weapon issued to officers of the Technische Nothilfe (TeNo), or Technical Emergency Corps, during the period of the Third Reich. Complete with its original officer’s knot, this dagger represents a desirable and historically significant piece for any serious militaria collection.

Introduced in the mid-1930s, the Teno officer’s dagger was awarded to members of the Technical Emergency Corps, a paramilitary organisation responsible for maintaining essential services such as power, water, transport and communications during the Second World War. With its elegant design, distinctive fittings and symbolic engravings, the dagger served both as a functional sidearm and as a visible mark of rank and prestige.

This example retains its original fittings, finely detailed hilt and scabbard, along with the correctly tied officer’s knot, adding to its completeness and collector appeal. The blade is in immaculate condition (See Pics).

Ideal for display in a private collection, museum setting or specialist militaria showcase, this Teno dagger with knot stands as a tangible reminder of Germany’s military and paramilitary organisations of the era.
