Scott i compared the etched Motto's and they are identical, i think the scabbards differ a bit, as i have the standard Eick blunt variant on 1 and yours on my second.
I have had another early oval, that is not exactly the same when looking at it closely.
Eickhorn had a lot of small differences in their early double oval, i have seen quite a few.
For reference sake i show you the 2 next to each other, and the Eick Motto, both the same as yours!
Thx for showing your lovely knife!
Regards,
Ger
