Long time since I found something at MAX that I really wanted.
Eickhorn large double oval trademark dagger. Belonged to John Pepera.
I had one a log time ago in much lesser condition and traded it.

Ross has identified the number. A fellow in the Race & Resettlement Office. File is upstairs and I'll post later.

The dagger is not perfect. Small chips missing from the top of the grip. Anodizing is there but worn. I'm a blade guy

Awesome piece Dave! Taking in consideration that this blade is 75+ years old it is just perfect!
