RLB

  
RLB-39 Paul Weyersberg 2nd  Model RLB Leader
Here's one from a UK family. Maker marked by Paul Weyersberg the blade is Exc/Exc+ showing scuffs and light grey as well as a few small pits. The buffer is lost to time. Early nickel hilt fittings are beautifully patinaed and in fine shape featuring the correct "cut-out" type swas. Grip leather is 100% intact with a properly pined sunburst swas. None of the silver wash remains between the rays of the sunburst and the enamel has suffer chipping. The grip leather shows minor pressure marks from wear. Scabbard is an undented example with good original leather showing wear and a bit of shrinkage. The scabbard fittings are matching nickel with the center scabbard band being steel, not a problem and I've seen this more often than not in the past. One screw in the upper fitting is missing, a replacement is available from Johnson for about $5. Overall Exc+
  $2250 Layaway (pdm)
 

   
RLB-35 Weyersberg 2nd  Model RLB EM

Vet purchased example out of IA.last week. Never been in a collection or even apart!  Blade is conservatively Exc+/Exc++ 100% of crossgrain is intact. The Paul Weyersberg maker mark is clear, crisp and jet black. Scabbard feautures original glossy paint being retained at 98% with some crazing and the odd scratch from period use. The lower fitting is solid nickel with unturned screws. The plated hilt fittings are in good shape with 99% plating intact. The screw retaining the throat is again intact and unturned. The hardwood grip has some very minor chips to the front next to the pommel and just above the eagles head. It is crack free with a nice 2nd model RLB insignia correctly pinned in place. The black enamel to swas is about 99%, The coverage of the swas is complete however there is some minor chipping to one arm that you will find with an eye loop if you care to go looking. The silver washed sunburst shows near 100% of the silver intact with just the lightest wear to the highlights. Included is a OLC/RZM marked hanger with excellent original leather and 100% plating. A nice unmessed with example. Exc++
$1670 HOLD(den)
 
Why not complete your dagger with a nice set of hangers?
