Unless you want to display it backwards, I wouldn't care about the missing catch.

Yep, as already said if this is an "add on" to a deal it is a real bonus.

Next to my NS Juncker this is probably my favourite PKA and it seems someone already made a fairly crude attempt to replace the catch. If you choose, a jewellers silversmith could make a very good restoration if you provide a good pic of what it should look like but as the others have mentioned it will still display perfectly well in this condition. It is a personal choice as the damage already exists but if you do have it done just make sure it is a neat job by a professional with the correct catch profile.

I attach pics of mine for comparison.
