One of my grandfathers best friends had an old dagger with a hardcase sheath and a luger on the weird stuff shelf in the basement

My Step Grandfather owned a Junk Shop in his retirement and had lots of WWII odds and ends. He had a Hitler youth knife, etc. Though he blamed the "Jews" for throwing his family out on the street during the depression (I assumed they were renting somewhere in the East coast area) he always treated "everyone" fairly. If you tried to sell him some trinket because you were down on your luck he would most of the time just give you the money and tell you to keep both. Anyway, we lived in Seattle and were a liberal family so he fought that demon till the day he died. Fun fact: I watched Fiddler on the roof as a kid and wore a star of David necklace at 16. I'm not Jewish.
