Heim ins Reich means “back home” it was a foreign policy pursued by Hitler in 1938 to call all Volksdeutsche “ethnic Germans” back to the fatherland. That didn’t mean to move back to Germany but for them to help reclaim land lost in the Treaty of Versailles like the Sudetenland and Poland, Austria, Czechoslovakia and to bring it back into the control of greater Germany.
Wow! What a treasure! I would give anything to own one of those daggers. I could sit all day and watch y’all drink beer and open those boxes. And I’ll drink one with ya! lol
Heim ins Reich was a slogan used by the Nazi all the way back to 1921/22 The slogan was often used with Austria or and Sudetenland. Thank you for a great Vlog.
My worst nightmare: Dying and have my millenial LGBTQ son and his boyfriend sell off my collection. Buy some snowpowder from the cash and share it with their other boyfriends.
@@thilgu that’s exactly how I see my collection, however if I knew it was going to be sold off and not cared about once I pass I’d rest easier knowing it’s now in the hands of people that enjoy these items just as much as once did
I'm gay, a millennial, and love old militaria. I was just sitting around with some friends drinking some Spaten and sporting some Wermacht infantry helmets. Also, coke is a lame ass drug, imo.
Greetings Mr Wittmann. I have had your name land on my desk on many occasions. Seasons greetings from an English armour restorer hiding in a French forest (and all the mice in the workshop) 🏆🇬🇧⚒️🐀🐁
New Subscriber here. I am so glad this was put on my homepage....I may have to get a 2nd on my house and start collecting!! Look at the condition of the items in this first box! Cannot believe they're over 100 years old. The SS and SA daggers, and the Polizei bayonet look almost new.. i have always wanted an SA dagger..to think that Hitler, in order to get the support of the Army Generals, betrayed his "Brown Shirts", the Sturm Abteilung(sp?), because they were a numerical threat to the standing Army. (Subscribers, Please correct me if I am incorrect)
I've got something really cool, idk if youd call it trench art, but it's a hand made box about the size of a letter, with some bullets, coins soldered on the lid, and a large engraving inside with leaves and a crown kinda set up like a cadillac logo. I'm assuming ww1.edit: its solid brass
Really great daggers. I see quite a lot of German equipment in Europe these daggers look too good no age marks ect they are 80 years old Are they refinished then sold on ??
Very nice guys .. I just bought two SS helmets online,, almost have chance get SS Dagger also ,but was to slow ;-( Like this videos ,and learning from it ..Keep posting this .. Take care ;-))
"heim ins reich " (back in the empire) might come from Austria ( der Anschluss) or Sudetenland ( now south Poland)when it was reconnected/annexeted with Germany
hi can you tell me do you no of any books that will give me good pictures of german 88mm tank shells and the boxes that they came in ?it would be a big help .thanks barry
Hey Alex, can you, or anybody else here for that matter, tell me how much is the very cheapest SS dagger, but to be in semi normal condition, to have whole blade, motto, all insignia etc. It can be chipped a little on the wood as the one here, no matter how good scabbard is in paint etc ?
Im getting sick to my stomage . that man got all the daggers from the wartime. Thats why they are so expencive, id love to own one but just cant afford one
Man this guy has got me wanting German daggers I always thought daggers were stupid and I never liked them a more of a holding knife guy Or a bowie knife kinda guy but man I gotta have some of them German daggers
Thousands of dollars of rare antiques been piled up on a dust & oil covered work bench ???? If this was my collection I had consigned for sale I would have been furious
Ich bin erstaunt, wie ähnlich der Herr Wittmann meinem Großvater sieht. Mein Großvater ist ungefähr in seinem Alter und sieht fast genau so aus wie er. Brille, Haare, nur er heißt Walther Beste und ist ein wenig beleibter.😁
@@WarStoryRu But thank you for the wonderful video from Tom’s basement! Those items are fantastic condition, unbelievable SA daggers and two “!” SS daggers! Krassiva!! Spassibo.
Nice items! What wonders me though is that such a big collector didn’t even put the effort to learn proper German, like “Heim ins Reich”, that’s so easy to learn... Americans :/

You can adopt me! Trust me I’ll cherish them “Dad” 😁
I’d suggest selling it all off when your near your end, and enjoy that cash for yourself!
@@bodhietheridge6606 some people see their collection as their historical legacy.

I would love for him to do full videos of how to ID blades, groups etc! Like German daggers for dummies!
Very interesting unboxing video. I enjoyed seeing the Luftwaffe uniform.

super rare and condition German uniform! And lays it on a stained work-bench...
Amazing! Some super rare makers on those SA daggers.
Fantastic daggers that sound of them coming out of the scabbard love it. 😍😍
I gritted my teeth in a grimace afraid all that clattering surely meant we would be looking at a scratched dagger 🗡 or two!
more unboxing Tom.
Beautiful pieces of history..
The green armband says “Reichspost” not Reichssport. Still a rare one.

@@allenschmitz9644 what does it mean?
Sorry I'm not much on any other languages.
@@thomasboully6545 post office...mail man.
This guy has made me think about investing in daggers and knives...seems like something that would indefinitely hold value
The good stuff does hold value and will sell when you're ready to make some profit.
Enjoyed the unboxing.
Awesome! That s Alladin s cave ,a lot of rare stuff !
I would be happy till I’ve seen Rommels field Marshals Baton...
Great video, love your channel👍
Thank you!
Excellent pieces, but man I would not be putting those daggers on that bench and dragging them across,.

Nicht vergessen,alles geraubt und wunderbar..bin selber Sammler..
I would use that dagger to chop up my tomatoes. Chop! Chop! Chop!
Very Nice indeed 👍
all very pretty but a scottish dirk of the 16,17 hundreds that was used not for show but had its deadly purpose would be nice to view
"heim ins reich " (back in the empire) might come from Austria ( der Anschluss) or Sudetenland ( now south Poland)when it was reconnected/annexeted with Germany
Очень крутой обзор который раз смотрю и получаю удовольствие
We love thomas!!!
i just want one thing from this
Wahnsinn.hammer.super
What would one of those SS daggers sell for?
hi can you tell me do you no of any books that will give me good pictures of german 88mm tank shells and the boxes that they came in ?it would be a big help .thanks barry
Fajny filmik 👍
Kriegsmarin cap - beutiful,I have one,bootsmann.
Great to know these exist...this was a empire just like the Roman these are history.
Hey Alex, can you, or anybody else here for that matter, tell me how much is the very cheapest SS dagger, but to be in semi normal condition, to have whole blade, motto, all insignia etc.
It can be chipped a little on the wood as the one here, no matter how good scabbard is in paint etc ?
What’s going on,,, are they sending stuff in to be sold on consignment…???
Youre a Lucky guy mr.
Im getting sick to my stomage . that man got all the daggers from the wartime. Thats why they are so expencive, id love to own one but just cant afford one
Man this guy has got me wanting German daggers I always thought daggers were stupid and I never liked them a more of a holding knife guy Or a bowie knife kinda guy but man I gotta have some of them German daggers
OMG!!
it's not on my nerves 😲
Whitman allways has the goods. Whitman have you ever seen or had a pack of SA cigarettes
I will ask Thomas
I wonder if he's related to Michael Whittmann
I dont think so... I have been following him a long time, he never mention it.
Wittman, related to ss tank ace wittman?
Nope... just coincidence.
Jetzt fehlte nur noch auf einem der Ehrendolche " Dem Reichsjagdmeister "
So wish I was rich!
"Heim ins Reich" it means like " back to home" or "back to my motherland"
Thousands of dollars of rare antiques been piled up on a dust & oil covered work bench ???? If this was my collection I had consigned for sale I would have been furious
The way he just tipped all the daggers out of their packaging made me wince, it would have caused some damage I would have thought
....the daggers are from his own collection... look at the other clips ...they have the same little papers with informations on it
Ich bin erstaunt, wie ähnlich der Herr Wittmann meinem Großvater sieht.
Mein Großvater ist ungefähr in seinem Alter und sieht fast genau so aus wie er.
Brille, Haare, nur er heißt Walther Beste und ist ein wenig beleibter.😁
Окей 👌
Oh Boy!...I'm getting hot over these!
You mentioned some collectors were from Israel in the video, when you said it my first thought was poetic justice........
Sorry sir, but at 6:24: it’s a Reichspost (DRP) armband, not Reich sport......

3:31 Did no one notice the "crete" cutt title on that jacket? If its real it would make the piece much more interesting but normally its a red flag..

Fire the cameraman. You should have smacked his hand away the first time he reached out to touch something.
6:20 It says "Reichspost" (Postal service) not "Reichssport" (doesnt exist). It cant watch this anymore....
