Gentlemen

What do you think of this RAD Hewer. For me the red flag is the motto. I have compared hard with one I have in hand and in these photos is see indentations along some of the edges. What do you think?

a close up of the motto

some of these edges look a bit rough don't they?

It's a good one in very good condition.

Thanks for taking the time to look and answer.

All the best

Very niece piece in extremely collectible condition. This minor 'bleed' is not uncommon

Paul

Yes a very nice original dagger

nice original RAD hewer

Thanks gentlemen. I didn't buy it in the end as the guy wanted �uro 1500 for it. About US$200 which I thought was a bit steep.

Great comments guys - many thanks

I think 1500€ is a little bit much, but it is nice one.

You know it is very easy to see imperfections when you zoom in like that. That is really a very nice hewer and rarely do you find one in that condition. whilst $2000 may seem a little steep you do get a lot for your money with these and condition is everything. I have one but whilst in good condition like many it has a few bruises on the bottom fitting.

See how may other imperfections you can find in this one

The pimples within the etch I believe is due to an acid bath that is due for cleaning. At least that was the opinion of some more knowledgeable than me. Imperfect? Yes. Would I part with it? Not yet!

This hanger is a real good one. mostly they are pretty poor.
