DRK leaders

[Ron Weinand]

This is why I avoid DRKs by PDL and WKC RLB Jrs. as I have seen them crumble in person at shows. Also, the break easily. JMO

Not limited to just PDL; in other instances like WKC with crossguards on RLB Jr. and some small producers on M98 Dress Bayonet hilts.
This can also be seen on late war Naval pommels and crossguards to mention q few.
