Eickhorn Oberförster Hirschfanger - Senior Forestry Cutlass Eickhorn

[gerrit]

I added this Eickhorn to my stash last week, its a senior Forestry cutlass in great shape.
Its funny to see that the etch in common daylight is black but when seen in sunlight its completely grey/silver.
The etch looks great and is in good condition, its not mint a few stains it has, but it comes pretty close, goldwash on fittings is superb.
The gripplates are made of bone or ivory, hard to tell which of the two, but looking closely the grain can be seen.
It comes with all acorns in place.

Enjoy the pics!

But.............I have the solution Horst.....sell it to me!!!

I wasnt aware that Tiger had a pattern with an eagle on its ferrule too, i only know it from Clemen & Jung.
Thx for showing Horst!

Ger- Took me a while to find this one - these are a lot lighter because the handles are constructed in a light metal ,a hard to find Hirschfanger.
Good hunting
