I agree with Pat. I also have never seen a Rohm
inscription that was not in a straight line.
These were dedication daggers. They were special
at the time of issue. It could be original, but
most likely a reject. However, in my opinion, this
dagger would not constitute as a "Keeper". There
will always be doubt surrounding the inscription. You want "textbook" when it comes
to Rohm dedication daggers.
If this was to be your only full Rohm, I would pass on it. Unless you got it on the cheap and
want to upgrade later. COA's don't mean a lot for me. But that's me. I've seen too many that have turned out wrong. Or maybe I should say it
another way. I put more trust in the German
Quality Control Inspector on early dedication
daggers then on a COA from a dealer today. Sorry
guys (dealers).
If Craig is right, and he maybe. But in my opinion that blade is at best a original REJECT!
If I came across this item, It would have to be
Cheeep. But after many years I have learned to
pass on these "questionable variations".
My 2 cent worth....
