Well the Final McSARR is finished, but some questions remain. In the past I had accepted some suggestions from others as to the validity of some questionable makers. However significant time has passed and we have not been able to verify some. Indeed is has now been 7 years since a previously unrecognized maker has emerged. So for the Final McSARR I have only included makers that have been personally verified by Dave Hohaus or myself. I am asking the collecting body if anyone can verify the following makers as having definitely produced Early SA daggers(no RZMs). If you own or have good photos of any of the following makers, please post them or mail them too me at nmcalvanah@centurytel.net Anyone who can provide one will get a free Final McSARR.
