This is a VERY Informative discussion of the 'date of' the 1st Rohm's. A magical Dated photo from Robert Noss could go a Long way in helping to move the discussion (& intellectual investigation) in either direction. One problem is that there are virtually NO period photos of the daggers - being viewed outside of their scabbards! (With the exception of Maker's catalogs - and I'm not aware of one, which lists the Rohm model per se.)
Ron, any idea where the Milestone 'A' type Rohm Engraved Model ended up in a collection? That Rohm dagger would be Spectacular, and an 'eye opener' to see, for sure.
