Who is this maker and how rare is it?

forget it by the time I resize and crop the thing it looks terrible

Try this

Martin I think I have got it.
I went through the Gau mark list that relate to known makers that I have as I can see it is 'Ns'
I went through them and I think it is by Hermann Schneider . I don't want to get you excited and I know members do not like divulging Mikes list here but by my reckoning it is a Very Rare maker (if you know what I am saying).

Best wishes,

Rare is relative when we talk about early SA's, when many makers were cottage entities.

Yes I just called the chap it is this maker so I can tell him not to mug it away when he goes to sell it its got a stone mint blade as well.

value?

lets be fair imo it is rocking horse can anyone show a pic of another top find well done.

shame about the dent

If it is the same piece that is pictured badly above you have a PM.

I just checked a load of pictures I have and it is the same one with a dent in the same place.

The chap who owned it sold an SS dagger to one of our members and the buyer never got it, just a lot of excuses after he paid for it. Do you have an address for Simon the owner? or if you bought it from a dealer perhaps you could let us know who it was so we can try and track him down to get the money back on the SS.

Thanks

The plot thickens!!!
