Hello Stingray,

That is certainly the most extended Pack HJ-knife collection... in the world!

Very impressive to see all these rare blades together... 3 eyed eagleheads! ... just wonderful to see the superb condition of several of the showed pieces!

Well done and keep on going!

Many thanks for posting them here!

Best greetings,

Herman

Wow thats nice!!!

Ray,

Simply stunning array of Packs. No wonder I can't find any.

That collection of yours is stunning,, along with some of the best etches I have ever seen. very nice

Amazing!


John

Very impressive. No wonder I can't find one anywhere.

Thanks gentlemen, but to be honest, it was a great hunt, which is not over yet

Regards

Awesome collection Ivan!!!!
Take care,
Bob

So that's where they all went!! No wonder I can't find these anymore.
Guess I'll give up on Pack HJ's and go back to benie babies

Im jealous. all three of your false buttons are better than mine. If you want to exchange the real clean one for $2000 let me know . d.d.h. www.ddsdaggers.com

DD don't be jealous.You got beautiful collection too.
Like a transitional 1938 you have,i just can't find it.
Maybe some day

Stingray

Here is my latest find.
It's interesting 1937 transitional knife,with stamped number 3 on the hilt and also on scabbard leather hanger.

Stingray

Stingray:

It just keeps getting better.

Great collection, my friend!

Wow!

John

Ivan, Now that is a real Quality Condition E.Pack Transitional hj knife with an added bonus of the No3 Stampings


Congrats My Friend

I have always loved the early Pack HJ Knives and Engraved oval panel Bayonets. True quality and top manufacturer work IMO. Also, the early SA and SS Daggers by Pack are just the best.

I'm speechless, I don't think I ever saw that many HJ's in one picture. absolutely amazing. I started my collection with these youth knives, I love em, and the quality of yours are top shelf.

Rich

Ivan,

Great transitional '37! Really top notch condition, my friend.

Hey guys
I would like to show you my latest find.
It's a transitional with the motto and large diamond.
But what's interesting,is the year 1939.
IMO this piece was made in beginning of 1939,just before they stop using the motto.

Great catch, Ivan.

John

Guys,i would like to hear more opinions on this 1939 mottoed knife?

Stingray

Ivan, this must be a pretty scarce 1939 dated Transitional E.Pack hj!!!,

maybe these 1939 dated knifes were made up with mottoed blades they had to use up then they were date stamped 1939?

i see the hilt on this one is made from zinc,

Great Find my friend,


Regards Scott.

Hello Ivan,

This is the first 1939 Pack that I come across, so it for sure is a very rare knife!

A motto on a HJ knife, made after 1938, is always a difficult story: following the regulations, it should not be there.

Anyway, this is a very interesting piece and a great find, especially for a famous Pack collector like yourself!

Congratulations and thank you for showing it here.

Best regards,

Herman

1939 will a motto must be a fake!!

Its old & odd like me. I like it.

So do I.
I was being sarcastic cause I sold it to Ivan!!
Great to see you posting here my friend!

Hi I have just been looking at Your collection and I have found the knife which used to be mine (Transitional 1936 one). I'm affreid You have swaped the scabbards but it does not matter. Good to see it in good hands :-).

I finally found one that I was missing in my collection.
1938 transitional.

here are all transitional together

Now, that is one great set of trannies, Ivan.

John

Stunning John thanks for sharing Tony

Well done, Ivan!

You now have the most complete HJ Pack collection, congratulations!

Best regards,

Herman

Good job my friend!!
A few of those look familiar!

Thanks guys
You're right Paul,thanks


Stingray

Ivan,

E.Pack Made Top Quality hj Knifes & SA/SS Daggers Ect imo,


You Have a Top Pack Collection


Best Mac 66.

Could that possibly be a 1939 dated knife with a motto ??????

Thanks guys

Yes it's dated 1939 and i believe it is original.
Here are more pictures.

Regards

WOW ! What a great collection you have put together Ivan certainly took some dedication and persistence.

Simply madness to some, to others - simply beautiful madness. -Congrats !

Serge

[quote=stingray]Thanks guys

"Yes it's dated 1939 and i believe it is original"

Ivan,


i agree with you 100% my friend



Best Mac 66.

If Herman sees this, it will ruin his day. (Ref. Zeitler thread)

Don, you don't seem to understand, nor know me wel , do you?

At the addition of this piece to the topic - in last September- I already told Stingray that I believe his mottoed 1939 HJ by Pack to be 100% original. Why is that? The motto is complete right and shows all the typical Pack characteristics.

It might even be the explanation why you find no later HJ's by Pack.

Best regards,

Herman

Herman: You are correct, I do not know you well. However, your above comment contradicts your direct statement in the Zeitler thread that "No mottoed blades were produced after 1938". You can't have it both ways.

it's been quiet here lately so here is one for refreshing this HJ section.

This rare knife was also mentioned in Wittmann video in February 11th 2019

Enjoy

Hi Ivan,


What a wonderful hj by Pack with etched dedication, a great addition to your collection my friend !



Regards Mac 66.

Thanks Scott
Yeah, I'm really happy with it

Great catch, Ivan.

You have an amazing Pack collection.

John

Yes, good catch and a great collection

Dave

thank you guys

Ivan you have an amazing Pack HJ collection and this last addition fits in perfectly!
What a true bonus.
Just 1 advise my friend, just find a new host for your website, as i miss you lovely Pack collection!

About the 1939 Knife, well i owned a 1939 WKC Mottoed knife once, and the etch was undoubtful a WKC one, exactly like the 1938 one.
Like your 1939 one its all matches.
IMO they produced the Mottoed blades in 1938, and the RZM logo of 1939 was added in 1939 ( just older stock, why throw away a good blade?

Ger

What a unique and high quality very early eagle head Pack HJ you scored, Ivan!

That certainly must be your score of the year!

Many congratulations!

Herman

Thank you guys
Here is also one ,which I found at a last SOS show.
It's a last one I was missing.
1936 with ricasso.

So here are three 1936 , you can see that the first was a ricasso less with small maker mark,
after they change to larger logo and finally they switched to ricasso.

Thx for sharing your unique Pack collection!

Just awesome!

Ger

Great to see your new additions Ivan !

Do you have all the Pack hj variations now in your collection ?


Regards Mac 66.

Thank you guys
Scott, I think yes ,but you never know what pop ups in one day

Wonderful, Ivan!

I never saw this 3 variants together!

Best regards,

Herman

Ivan,

Does that latest one have an anodized scabbard ?

I ask because I have an early Eickhorn with an anodized scabbard.

Dave

Hj Dave
If you talking about the one with etched blade then no,it has painted scabbard.
The 1936 it has anodized scabbard.
I would like to see yours early Eick.

Ivan ,

I need to find it and take photos. I'll start a new topic.

Dave
