RAD EM Hewer with Hanger [M1934] by Gottlieb Hammesfahr Solingen

This RAD Dagger by Gottlieb is in EXC+ condition throughout. Model 1934 for RAD Hewer. The total length is 39.6 cm. The Hewer has the maker mark on the blade: Gottlieb Hammesfahr Solingen.


Grip: The stag grip plates are extremely nice, showing no wear. The front plate is lighter than the revere, with shades of tan that darken as they get deeper. The trimmed during the mounting process have all toned to a golden yellow. The reverse grip plate is darker with deeper grains. The screws on this example were installed from the reverse with the spanners visible on the obverse. Studying the screw heads we see they are also completely new-like and have never suffered the touch of a tool.

Blade: The blade is in Near Mint condition and it has the Bowie-style end, with a fine narrow fuller. The obverse facing bears the RAD motto, “Arbeit Adelt”. This motto has 100% of the original factory background darkening. The reverse ricasso is marked with the Gottlieb Hammesfahr Solingen trademark and is etched with a RAD triangle, the protected patent term “Ges Gesch”.

Scabbard: The scabbard shell is completely straight. The paint is very nearly 95%. The nickel-plated scabbard mounts are also beauties. These mounts have perfect plating throughout, with the RAD curls at the upper mounts and the RAD spade and wheat stalks on the lower mount. These embellishments are in crisp, perfect condition. All of the stampings have the original background darkening. As is always the case with these pieces there is a line of beading that runs around the edges of the mounts where they meet the scabbard shell. The original flat head screws are all in place.
