Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.
About as elaborate as it ever gets! The 13 inch blade is a triple acid etched example. It is correctly stamped with an early 1933-1935 double oval Eickhorn maker mark. The etch is nice and clear light having highly detailed panels depicting hunting scenes. There is no sharpening but there is some hits to the "cutting" edge like it was hit against a sharp surface, (10 year old's sword fighting?). The blade is very clean with some age towards the tip. The factory Green felt buffer is intact. The tip and fit are perfect. The blade rates Exc++. The scabbard has fine black leather with good coverage and some scuffs. Some of the top layer has chipped off and it has been blackened to make it more aesthetically pleasing. It has two decorative lines running the length of the scabbard on both sides. All of the stitching remains intact. Both undented matching brass fittings have scalloped edges. The staples are still intact, peek under the staples and again you will see wee numbers. Look at the detailed hunting scene to the lower of a stag challenging a dog! The clamshell has an inlaid silver plate of a grouse. The D-guard has a decorative stag hoof end. The pommel ends with a fox crouching under a pine. The grip is stag with 3 matching pinned brass acorns. Finishing this is the skinner with it's original brass acorn/oakleaves laid into it's stag grip plate.
