Last MM huh? Hard to believe that this level of handwork would exist in Voos's last efforts in Heer daggers? Maybe Voos didnt produce Heer daggers later in the period..period. This would mean that Voos changed its mark every year or even more frequently though! Kevin.
Kevin I was told this mark although the last Voos used dates to 36-37 so it’s still fairly early certainly on the cusp of the hand finishing work going away and manufactures going to the guards that did not require any hand detailing. I always thought the Voos stamped marks were later but I don’t scrutinize maker marks I collect by crossguard. Having said that I don’t recall seeing another non etched single oval army? Seems to be scarce.
