EXC++++

- SA (Sturmabteilung) daggers can feature aluminum pommel nuts, particularly on late-production or RZM-marked models (roughly 1936–1942), where nickel-plated zinc or aluminum was often used to reduce production costs

• Aluminum/Zinc Usage: Later-production models, often stamped with the RZM logo (Reichszeugmeisterie), commonly utilized cheaper materials, including aluminum or zinc-plated nuts.
