Herman,
Did you not read the post from hj research forum ?
opaque enamel has been around as early as 1936 so why are you saying they cant be fitted into hj knifes when they were making them during & after the time period hj knifes were produced,
Quote Metallwarenfabrik
I dont have any problems with it. This maker, and others from the same area, around the same time (circa 1936-8) are known to have used Opaque enamel on their smaller Official party items. (obviously done by an Emaillierfabrik/anstalt en mass) I have seen these described as "..with the very rare tomato red enamel." or "..a scare Opaque version." Both being of course utter rubbish, Opaque enamel can be found on many different small official party items made by a multitude of makers from both Germany, Austria and Sudentenland. Nothing rare or scarce about the Opaque enamel, and nothing out of the ordinary with this badge.
Regards Mac 66.
