Now here are my questions:
1) The pommel etch has this bulbous shape, curved on both sides. Is this correct? I would have expected straight edges.
2) The bookends are very simple on both sides, not something that one sees on Klaas bayonets, or for that matter on other ones either.
3) The only Hans Romer that seems to have existed is a uniform distributor out of Neu Ulm, which is about 30km from Munchen. Would this shop have had a branch in Munich? And are there any other Romer Munchen items out there to prove this?
4) Last question relates to the font style used in the dedication... it is not at all like the font used by Klaas, more like the font used by Eickhorn. I show this etch, a Klaas dedication etch and an Eickhorn etch... look at the capital letters F, E and D.
Comments guys?
