My new HJ Leader

[Ostmaerker]

Look, what I got, a nice HJ Leader from Eickhorn complete with its hanger

And interesting how many differences can be found to my "old" one.

Have fun.

I prefer the Eickhorn ones over the Horster manufactured ones. I assume your blade is not chrome plated??

No, it isn´t Ron.
The one in the middle is a Hörster.
Intersting are the diferences even in the scabbarts, they really changed a lot during a very short periode of time.

There are more Eickhorn variation to the HJ Leader in a very short period of time than any other model and I am currently working on a small book or pamphlet on this particular dagger. If anyone has any information or any variation (Trade marked or RZM Eickhorn) that you would be willing to photograph or send to me for photos, I will see you get credit.

A Eickhorn HJ Leader is hard to find these days, and you got two ! - Congrats !

Now try to find a Screw-on Pommel version.
Perhaps Ron's got one to show, if some don't know what that is (or do we want to let that out of the bag before the publication ?)

[Ron Weinand]

Yes, please if anyone has the Eickhorn TM version with the screw off pommel, please let me know and post some photos here or send me publication worthy photos. Mine is currently in the bank, so don't have it here to photo and post in detail. Ron Weinand

Interesting topic with the screw off pommel I gents do not know about that.

But wow 3 hj leaders, very impressive.
