RAD Enlisted Mans Hewer with hanger [M1934] by Carl Eickhorn Solingen

This RAD Dagger by Eickhorn is in NEAR MINT condition throughout. Model 1934 for RAD Hewer. The total length is 39.7 cm. The Hewer has the maker mark on the blade: Carl Eickhorn in Solingen.

Grip: The grip plates are a most beautiful antler and fit the dagger flawlessly. These stag grips match each other in terms of color tones in both the surfaces, which get lighter towards the tips. The edges are well as the trimmed areas are turning a fine, golden color. The nickel-plated hilt mounts are 100% intact, with no signs of any deterioration. Even the crossguard has 100% of the original factory background darkening.

Blade: The blade is in near mint condition and it has the typical matte finish and 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 of this blade is etched with a RAD triangle and the protected patent term “Ges Gesch”.

Scabbard: The scabbard shell is completely straight. The paint is very nearly 95% and retains an original factory shine. 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.
