If I can find my copy of my article I will post it. I have presently mislaid my copy, but I will endeavour to find it.

Regarding the stamped Krebs mark, I have to ask you Houston, how do you know that those pieces brought in by Atwood, with the stamped Krebs TM, are actually post-war production? Just because you haven't seen that version of the trade mark on any other Third Reich piece does not mean that it is spurious - absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

For the faker, it would have been easier to have etched the TM at the same time the blade motto was being etched. The fact that someone went to the trouble to invest in a stamp, and the means to embed it into the blade tends to weigh strongly in favour of authenticity in this case - in my opinion.
