            The diamond is not moving?

              Looks like a nice early Plucker hj

              BTW: Sometimes the diamond does not move & griplates did not have an exact fit, the diamond in your knife looks like its been there from day one, dirt round edges with a tight fit into the griplate recess !

                It does move under the finger when rocked back and forth. But not so much with a tap.

                  That's good to hear. Thank you. Is the one rivet bigger than the other a concern? To me that means the grips were replaced at one point. I know it's possible, but what is the likelihood of 2 different rivet heads being used? I had seen another knife before with one small and one bigger rivet. Different maker though.

                    Have seen one rivet bigger than the other before on different makers so i would not worry about it, both look early solid nickle types & they have been there a long time, could have been repaired during the period, its a nice early hj & a keeper imo.

                      Nice, original HJ in my opinion and I love the maker. Always wanted one by that maker. Please LMK if you decide to sell. Thanks BDM

                        This is my first ever after a lot of consideration. I'll be holding onto it for a while

                        I made the cardinal sin a few years ago purchasing one through an online auction. Was a repro Didn't dissuade me though. I know better now.
