Early HJ Fahrtenmesser with Motto by Emil Voos

Another great early HJ knife by Voos.
Its diamond in great shape, grip with no damage!
The scabbard has almost all of its original paint.
leather is great, not dry at all!
I love the early thin blades without ricasso!
I also post the 3 early birds side by side

Enjoy these pieces of history

Cheers Ger

I love those early no ricasso types gerrit!! The HJ diamond and grip look to be in great shape. I think the HJ boy who owned knew better not to throw it into a tree.

Nice motto etch

Lovely collection, I have an early one also:-)

Thank you all Gents for the lovely words!

The former owner searched for years to get these lovely early knives, he still owns 2 great ones.....but i think its might be a matter of time, he sold almost his entire collection because of health problems

so i guess i just have to wait for the last 2.
one is engraved on top with the owners name, that Tiger knife is great!!!
Keep you updated....

Cheers Ger
