I'd like to see a picture of the complete knife but from the pictures provided IMO it looks like a good one

While I've not owned or seen an HJ from this maker (M7/103, Josef Hack)I think it's a good one.The only thing that's a little unusual is the small size to the RZM code.This could just be the way this company did it.Since this company is located in Austria,maybe this has something to do with it,or maybe not.Did other Austrian companies(M7/99,100,101,102,104,105,106...) do it this way?Ray

I have no problem with this one..has that "been there" look, used but not abused.

Nice find and that has to be one of the scarcer makers - enjoy!

Looks nice. Does the diamond jiggle?

Value - Nice condition HJ knives are going up quicker than any other edged weapon IMO. Around $150-200. Real nice ones with no motto are selling easy on dealer sites for $300.

jiggle?? Do you mean it has to move a little bit ?

Does an original dagger always has to "jiggle".

Frank,

I think that COLORADO is refering to diamonds that don't move alittle means that they may have been GLUED on (a definate sign of a fake). Originals are held in place with prongs, and ones that are alittle loose tend to move alittle.

Take care.

Yes, that is what I meant. Although not 100%, but slight movement in the HJ diamond is always a good sign. No movement is reason for closer examination.
