Gentlemen,

I've recently received these 2 daggers from a good freind of mine that has been collecting for many years. He bought these 2 daggers many years ago and back then, there was no internet and hardly any reference books on the subject.
It was a tough world and you really had to rely on your gout feeling.
I know the Eickhorn to be 100% original because it does match every known "textbook" Rohm dagger that I've seen ( including mine that was authenticated by Gailen David last year ).
However, you can see for yourself that the E.Pack does not fit any of the Eickhorn's characteristics. Both inscriptions are completely different. Not a single letter is the same.
Here's my question : was there more than 1 type of template for these ? Could there be 2 completely different Rohm's inscription ? I always thought that all Rohms were identical ?
If not, then the E.Pack be a fake ?
Sadly enought, both daggers were bought at a antique shop many moons ago from an unknown source. Frown

In the first picture, the E.Pack is on top and the Eickhorn down below.
