    Looks nice. These are not something I'm qualified to opine on but it got me looking and found this thread. Not sure if you saw it.

    See post 7 especially. Not sure if it is an exhaustive list or just a point in time...

    RZM code M7 Dagger makers who DID NOT MAKE HJ knives
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    Hello Map & thanks for the interesting thread, tonight I looked for 1 of these and just so far found a transitional one @ the HJ Research forum, and another 1 @ German Daggers and that one with only a pic of maker's name.

    a rare maker indeed, and a no ricassa thinblade that still has an undamaged diamond.
    Its in fairly used condition, but atractive to HJ maker collectors.
    Im a bit surprised to see a scabbard with 2 runners, instead of the expected frontside only.

    thx for showing

    Worn, but it's all there. Lovely blade profile. I've only seen one other by Emil Gierling.

    Thanks for the comments guys, with calipers it measures up to the 1933 RZM specs. blade length. handle length etc., including diamond, diamond has movement, grips are tight & well fitted, added a inside pic of scabbard.

    The scabbard of the early no ricasso knives normally have a brown leather strap and a scabbard with one frontspring.
    Most likely your scabbard has been swapped along the way...
