Gentleman, I got this poor conditioned RAD leader and was wondering about your opinion. The Etch is deep and seam to be in order. The Eye of the eagle give me some doubts. What are your impresions?

From these pics (which are also not too good ;-) ) it does look to me like an original KREBS RAD leder�s hewer. It also has a feature only seen with KREBS so I do think there is a little additional proof that it is an original one.
A shame that it is denazified, otherwise it would be a hewer with a certain character of honest age.
What do you mean concerning the eagle�s eye? Can you show a detail of the questionabe feature?
Please would you also show a detailed pic of the scabbard hanger holders.

Here is the eye of my KREBS.
But you have one with a slightly different grip which is, I think the WKC grip (also used by other manifacturers).
And sorry for the also not too good pic ;-) (it�s just a cut out of a larger pic).
Regards,
