Herman. You are right. It's very strange. However there are legit items that come up that nobody has ever seen. And we have to be careful not to "kill it", beacuse it's not in a book. Or that killer phrase "Gee, I don't know. I've never seen that before". But at the same time, there are some very good fakes that are out there and one has to be very careful. You are right.
Johnny just picked up a very rare maker marked
Carl Krebs from Tom Wittmann. Very rare maker marked dagger. I've seen a lot. I've seen Pumas too. But I've never seen a Carl Krebs. Have you? I'm very glad when a younger member picks up a rare dagger at what I think is a reasonable price.
But I do feel that your advice should be paramount in looking at any 3rd reich edged weapon. -wagner-
