German World War 2 knife with a red and white diamond in handle?
The German army had a bayonet that had a Diamond shaped emblem that was RED and WHITE with a Swastika in it. This was the symbol for the Hitler Youth. This symbol was displayed on the grip of the bayonet and on the flag for their unit. The Hitler Youth was Germany's form of Boy Scouts for young men. However, it was also used to "brain wash" the children to believe in Nazism and Hitler as their answer to their country's problems. Late in the war, the Hitler Youth were armed and sent into fight even though some were not 18 years old.I believe that is what you have. I have seen a Hitler Youth dagger or bayonet that has this symbol on it.BTW, did you see the part in the movie "Saving Private Ryan" where they kill all the GErmans after they penetrated off the beaches. One soldier held up a bayonet and said, "Hey Joe(?), here's a Hitler Youth knife" or "These were Hitler Youth". He knew that because of the symbol on the grip.
