I must also admit that your photographic skill is "out of this world", you guys in Sweden ( including Sam ) surely take amazing pics.
Thanks for that coment Pat,the photographic part of this hobby has become a hobby itself, I enjoy to take good pics of my babies  Wotan: Thanks for your coments, I was more than happy with this Heer and with this new knowledge about the dagger I am even happier. Are they very rare and does it reflect in the pricing on such daggers compared to a "normal" Alcoso ?? Not because it matters but I am curious ! Thank�s Hakan

Prices are in the eyes of the interested collector. I only can mention that a mint conditioned dagger of the same configuration, also by ALCOSO, nicely patinated, was sold by one of our prominent members in the for sale section one year ago for down to 650 USD.

I checked again, and i was wrong on the magnetism of the pommel and guard on my Eickhorn Army,the magnet i used was so strong it attracted the steel underneath the silvered brass.
