Great looking initial production Eickhorn! Looks all correct,bet that one has a brass scabbard. Be careful they are easy to dent! Kevin.
It's ALL in the DETAILS!!.......

Hello, I agree with Kevin and Sean. Very nice double oval Eickhorn. And Kevin, you are absolutely right, these brass scabbards are VERY easy to dent! I have one with the same problem...  Mine has a tapered tang, and the tang is marked C.E. Janos

How often do we see a 12 leaf pommel on an initial production Eick?

Great first Eickhorn Seany. Only the 2nd example I have seen. The other one is in my cabinet

12 leaf pommels on the early Eickhorn's are seen occasionally, I've had a couple,whilst this dagger is early I should think with this pommel it's just not quite the earliest, no problem with it in my eyes.
