Hello Darklight..I will call you DL
Welcome to the forum
You you show a few more photos for the community here ...some details I am not seeing in the photos that are posted and would benefit greatly.
Could you provide please photos of :
The crossguards accent grooves
A closeup of the motto and Producers logo
The front of the grip showing both the runes button and grip eagle.
the blade shoulder to lower crossguard fit
Regards Larry

Larry,
If you click on the images, they expand.
Blade fit is not good, crossgrain is scratchy for a mint blade and motto looks laser ... ?
Dave
Hi Dave...thats why I asked for closer images that it may be possible it is laser etched...but Im hoping to dispel that with greater images.
I know the OP posted this to show everyone what he has added to his collection...yet with this type of forum we examine these details the same as flavorful notes and aroma in fine wines and whiskeys.
We just want to see these details that will fulfill what is expected of an Eickhorn SS em

Thank you
I see i both need better light and camera.. but hope these pics are helpful
A few more
I see the characteristic freckling along the etch which to my eye says original. However, glad I am not betting on anything anymore cause it sure seems like today nothing is sacred in this "hobby".
That is NOT a large oval Eickhorn motto etch. The grip appears to have been made yesterday. I don't even like the shape of the ball on the lower scabbard fitting. The dagger is, unfortunately for the OP, a fake IMO.
You're right, Skyline,
That why Larry and I have been asking for more images. And there is no trace of age on any of the bits.
Everybody - download and save these images for later reference
