Gentlemen,
I know that some of you will not like this theory, but to me it seems simply impossible that there were only 2 R�hm dagger orders.
When I look at my 3 Eickhorn ground R�hm's with 3 different but 100% correct makersmarks: they are so different but made by the same firm that I cannot believe that they were all 3 made within just a couple of months difference in time.
It is not just the makersmarks (see pictures), but the complete daggers are different, especially the "christmas" version is completely different (I know it is explained by calling them prototypes). But if nothing of the prototype is kept in the final version of the dagger, what would have been the utility "prototyping" it?
So it is my belief (and I look for proof for it) that R�hm was giving honour daggers with his dadication and signature on it, long before 1934, but that only the massive 1934 order was recorded by history.
Let me know what you think!
Best greetings,
Herman
