Here's something you don't see everyday. A nice Klaas Forestry hirschf�nger from the mid to late 1930's.

An unusual maker for a Forestry hirschf�nger, still looking for that elusive Klaas hunter.

Notice the angle on the frog, the top clip is specially positioned so the dagger hangs at the required angle.

Reverse grip plate Of the two Klaas forestry's I have both have the two rivets holding the reverse grip plate, no acorns. An anomoly that I believe is unique to Klaas.

Ed, I'm sure we all agree with that! Gary, you're right, same characteristics: the stamped mark, plated blade, three acorns on the obverse grip with two alloy rivets in the back, and gilded-steel scabbard fittings. Good call. Best! Bill
