Sorry!, I was not able to unload any photos due to size limit. Is there a way to reduce size? In any way, I see a minty HJ Transitional Knife with motto and marker mark E.F Horster on the reverse . Also, RZM on the ricasso on the reverse is M7/37 which is for Robert Klaas .EF Horster code should be RZM M7/36 . How could you explain the discrepancy Like that? I believe the knife is authentic in every way except wrongn RZM code.

Thanks,

Hi Will,

You just have to resize your pictures under 250 kb to post them.

Don't know if Vern or Dave offer the service to do it?

Best regards,

Herman
