Hi Ivan
Very typical Eickhorn pattern with the addition of a great presented blade, this type of blade presentation was usually used for the ADJV, first I have ever seen anything different than that and this is very unusual and 100% period in my opinion, it's actually a Weimar period piece as its dated 1925 and has the mark they tended to use during this period. Great find, I'd love to see it at the SOS if your bringing it.
Cheers
Gary

Hello stingray, the Hirschf?nger looks like a nice one. A honor gift most probably to an employee of the certain uniform works. But not imperial as the date mentions it is from 1925 therefore between wars and therefore "Weimarer Republik". A big plus is that the small knife, which seems to fit, did not get lost and is still present. Regards,
