Hubertus,
A very good idea to post Eickhorn KS98 variations. Some nice examples shown by everyone.
Here is one that is not often seen. The all steel KS98. These are typically more massive than the plated KS98 and are polished steel throughout. The blade is 26cm instead of 25cm and bear early and later Eickhorn markings. They have hard rubber grips instead of plastic and some have T/O slots and some have T slots in the pommel. Here is one with the earlier Eickhorn markings.
