Kevin:

I thought that it was just mine. The blade is kinda spotty and dull, the grip is a little beaten up. Again, I jumped at a chance to get a rare maker mark even though I would normally just pass by a blade in this condition. For example, I would not even look at an Eickhorn or an SMF in this shape.

I also thought that I saw the word 'Solingen' under the "Clemen und Jung' on your dagger. Is this correct? Mine doesn't have this.

Always looking for Eickhorns and etched bayonets.
