I like to hone my skills. Spine appears too sharp,crossgraining to heavy, 74 year old dagger and the blade appears flawless not a spot on it.All the letters appear to be in the correct shape but the inscription does not look like writing it looks like a stamp or a template.I think it is an original blade with the inscription applied latter.

Inscription later??
,,Alles Fur Deutschland,,and the Rohm-inscription and the E.P.S.logo foto 4+5 are the same also the collor and the depth of the etsing!
You can not see the grossgraining(little on foto 4+5 I think the E.P.S. crossgraining is very small sometimes You can see it on foto 4) this is a track of regular cleaning I think the claening with fine barn paper.on the other foto.

Take a close look at M/M it is to close to the crossguard. All Pack's I have seen and mine are a little farer.

It is a very good reproduction.The maker mark is also fake.Here is what a real one looks like.The more I look at this dagger the worse it gets,but I could be wrong.I guess we will never know ?????????

The Pack logo looks etched rather than stamped.


If you want to criticise someone first walk a mile in their shoes. Then, when they come after you, you'll be a mile ahead and they'll be barefoot.

zorro,
You can see the Early logo--Little hammering Siegfried logo-- on the site
thomas Wittmann -sa daggers nr:004-27846,this early logo is EXACTLY the same of jajan dagger.It is a typical early logo for a early SA(Rohm dagger)
You logo is differently,probaly later.

My impression is that the blade is a recent fake, based upon the questionable aspects noted above, Also, compare the "S" in "Solingen" on the tm's shown. Not even close.

Correct marking in EP&S crossguards should be S in a horseshoe.

You'll never really know until you take it apart, and carefully measure and weigh each component, and compare then to originals. Photos have limitations

Regarding the Pack TM, this post by Houston is a must read and shows many of the variations shown on a relatively small number of dagger examples.

Regarding the varity of Pack TM's.Right or Wrong I would not buy any dagger with the majority of the TM shown.It shows me why I think a genuine Rohm dagger is a rare item and of course thats just my opinion.

I'm with the "No-Way" boys on this one guys. Cool
E-Pack Rohms are IMO the toughest out these due to all the different logos they used. I would recommend only the experienced guys to tackle an E-Pack Rohm. Tom Wittmann will deal with this issue in his forth coming book.

On this one of JanJan's...IMO it's a fake. - Sorry. Frown
I dont like the look of the logo or it's placement.

Here is what you would want to see. One of two accepted Rohm logos. (Hey, there maybe more..but only two that I like. Could be a case for even a third.). Confused

It appears to me that in studying JanJan's dedication the fakers used the Eickhorn style template for the dedication. Which is most noticeable on the "Ernst Rohm".
Here's the style of "Ernst Rohm" that should be seen on E-Pack Rohm's.

Well at least that's my opinion. And I will stick with it until Gailen says different. Then I might change my mind! Big Grin

A lot of the same characteristics as my fake pack rohm as inspected one by Fredrick Stevens. Normally all the tang and crossguard markings and Makers marks are correct as they were re ground then the new inscription or new inscription and copy maker mark are applied to the reverse (so they are correct for a rohm as the once had the inscription). Most of the ones like I got burnt with have a very simmilar dedication to an eickhorn one.

When I take the blade out of min and hold it to the light down the dedicated side you can see a fractional dip just after the makers mark. Get it checked out by someone absolutely in the know..
