UBB.threads Forums Thread Like Summary - New Eickhorn Crossguard Variation

In Wittmann's Army dagger book there are two Eickhorn Cross guard variations known, In both these examples the wings are rounded where they meet the eagles legs. In the variation I show here it seems the rounded part of the cross guard wings have been cut away. Anyone else come across this variation? Thanks, John

Well we all know that Wittman missed a few guards in his army book.
Eickhorn has 4 different guards and if you take in count the all aluminium type 1 we can talk about 5 different guards.
I suggest you buy a copy of the army referencebook "Heeresdolche" by Ger Hessels & Danny Rieske ;)

Cheers
