What's a max bid?

Your maximum bid should be the highest amount you're willing to pay for an item.

Your entered maximum bid will not be disclosed to the seller or other auction participants at any point.

Max bidding example:

If the current auction price is $100 dollars and you place a maximum bid of $120 dollars, the system will bid $101 dollars on your behalf.

If no other participant places a bid, you win that auction lot for $101 dollars.

If another auction participant places a bid of $110 dollars, the system will subsequently place a bid of $111 dollars on your behalf. The system will continue to bid in $1.00 dollar increments until your maximum bid of $120 dollars is exceeded.

If another auction participant places a bid for $125 dollars, the auction lot price will display $121 dollars having exceeded your previously submitted maximum bid by $1.00 dollar.

Russia, Soviet Union. A 1990 Soviet Naval Officer’s Dirk with Hanger

An extremely well-preserved Soviet naval officer’s dirk, measuring 340 mm in length when inserted into the scabbard. It features a 215 mm-long nickel-plated magnetic metal blade with a sharpened tip and unsharpened edges. The obverse ricasso bears an etched maker’s mark of “БУЛАМ”, along with a Pegasus logo and manufacture date of “1990”. The reverse ricasso is stamped with a serial number of “239107”. The blade is set securely into the upper crossguard, presenting with hooked quillons, with the seam covered by a blackened leather washer. The handle and ricasso retain a functional spring catch, unlocked with a stud on the handle, for secure attachment to the scabbard. The handle grip is composed of smooth off-white celluloid, and completes with a gilded bronze pommel with a raised five-pointed star. It is accompanied by its period original scabbard, constructed of a blackened boiled leather shaft with three gilded bronze adornments, each held in place by a single visible rivet. The obverse throat adornment bears a raised stylized anchor, while the reverse has a depiction of a sailing ship cutting through waves. Both the throat and middle adornments also bear integral loops with suspension rings accommodating a hanger, similarly included. The hanger is constructed of a black ribbon base topped by black doeskin wool. One end of the hanger is attached to the wearer by a belt, completing at one end with a bronze loop and at the other end with a clasp of identical construction, bearing a central raised anchor, within a laurel wreath. The belt bears dual clasps, similarly with raised, wreathed anchors, with integral loops connecting to short belts with functional bronze spring clips. Each belt has stylized bronze buckle for length adjustment and completes with a functional spring clip meeting the analogous loops on the dagger scabbard. The reverse bears a label with a Moscow manufacture date of “1991”. The belt measures 800 mm in total length. Minor oxidation is evident to the bronze features of both the dagger and the hanger. In overall near extremely fine condition.
