Here is another one I picked up recently, Slant Eick that shows a lot of carrying time. Nice hand work and a great translucent looking grip that is the typical very slim, straight Eick slant grip. All brass based including the scabbard. Enjoy, and comments are welcome. Kevin.
It's ALL in the DETAILS!!.......

I do appreciate your PACK but this most early EICKHORN is even better as there does nothing go over a Quality slant grip.
Wonderful dagger!

Thanks again Wotan, this dagger shows a lot more wear than the Pack.. but as you say, it has a killer glossy grip and patina!

A beauty of an Eick, and I like Eick!

Another top shelf example. Textbook early Eickhorn with beautiful condition and patina. Love the Eickhorn Type-1 guard. As you said this is certainly the earliest configuration you will find on an Eickhorn. I really find these early Eickhorn scabbard bands very pleasing.

Thanks again Tom. You should know a bit about these, you have owned more examples than anyone I know! Kevin.
