Similar proposal to the thread i've just made...
Should we clasify knives with RZM number marked in the opposite side as usual, meaning then, the motto or diamond side (if its a late piece), as bad examples?
It looks like it is a characteristic to be very suspicious and still no strong answers regarding if there was any HJ knife marked with the RZM that way.
Almost all the knives i've seen here or in other forums marked that way were total crap, but i remember seeing one but cant remember where (Mike, do you remember that one we talked about in the MSN?), that it was marked with the RZM number in the "diamond" side of the blade ( I think, if i remember well, that it was a late example) and to tell you the truth, i thought the overall of the knife was fine, except for that part. It looked to be a well worned knife, or as some would say, "salty", diamond looked fine and so the rest of the knife.
Were there any HJ knives marked this way? any particular marker? or something?
If not, should we, the collecting community, consider it as "bad" right away?
I hope this debate can give a stronger general opinion about this issue that can help for the community.
Any inputs are welcome!
