Hi everyone
I got this in 1987 for 86US. The photo does not do it justice but enjoy. The plateing is 99% intact and totaly unsharpened blade with all cross grain.
Cheers
Ross

Very nice HJ knife, Ross!
I have one just like it (but lesser conditioned than yours) and I am always impressed when I hold it in my hands because of its weight. It is the heaviest HJ knife I know of. If I remember wel (I have weighted it some time ago), this WKC RZM7/42 1938 knife weights about 50 gr more than most other HJ's.
Nice score also, today you would pay at least 4 to 5 times that price!
Best greetings,
Herman
You never have enough HJ-knifes!

I agree, WKC HJ's from this period are very heavy, thick blades! Here's mine....
