The blade on this one looks great. The fit is nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfectly sharp point. The acid etched Alles für Deutschland – (Everything for Germany) motto and J.A. Henckels, Zwillingswerk Solingen maker mark are beautifully executed! The blade rates a solid Exc+. It has age grey and spotting throughout. The scabbard has some oxidization wear. The solid nickel scabbard fittings are in good condition, with only a few bruises to the bottom fitting. All four screws remain intact. The scabbard / crossguard fit is near perfect and closes with a snap. The solid nickel crossguards are in excellent condition. The reverse of the lower crossguard is Gau stamped Wf (Westfalen). The grip / crossguard fits are excellent! The brown hardwood grip has a soft finish and looks awesome. The solid nickel eagle is beautifully detailed with a perfect fit. The SA roundel also has a perfect fit. Overall it’s a great example.
