Hello everyone
Writes here because this knife is available for purchase for little money, but I do not have enough knowledge to determine if it is authentic. The owner says he doesn't know its history

Save your money, it's a post war scout knife with an added HJ symbol! Regards Paul.
You can tell it's a postwar knife just looking at the scabbard. Postwar scabbards have a raised lip at the throat end, wartime scabbards don't.

thank you all
Pommel is a dead giveaway as well ....check out some of the threads on authentic HJ examples here.

It's not even a Solingen made post war scout knife, quite a horror piece, a shocker.

Probably the seller doesn't know it's history because it hasn't got any! Looks like it was made last week.
