Thanks for clearing the maker mark up. Looks like a clean blade.

[Ken S]

thanks It is a very clean blade, but I have never saw a stamped maker mark like that, is that normal? or should it be eatched in?

Ken,
I'm not an "authority" either, but the stamped blades are generally far safer than the etched ones; many which were produced after the war was over. I don't have any problems with this blade and trust that you enjoy it for years!

Hi Ken,
That is the stamped Eickhorn tardemark from 40-41, uncommon. The blade is fine.

Something is a little strange with the cross guard and I cant quite place it.

[Ken S]

well the cross guard seams to be made of crome or nickle plating, and seams a different metal from the pommel, the old man I picked it up from said he got it at a flea market 25 years ago, but you know how stories go
