George,

Clemen & Jung is one of those makers we occasionally encounter but ever so rarely. I'm not surprised that the fittings mimic either Eick or WKC, that always seems to be norm. A very beautiful example greatly enhanced by the super rare hangers, many thanks for sharing it.

Can you post a shot of the blade etch? I'm curious is the etch is similar to Eick's etch or something completely different, like Ivan's Pack Ohliger example.


Don,

You're quite right about the cost of these examples, some are super expensive but as Tom Wittmann told me, "they may be rare, but so are the collectors that want them". Cost is probably why I've always stuck with the daggers instead of the axes.


Paul,

Thanks man! It's my only etched example although I do have a nice, plain 3R era example with hanging device similar to one of those you posted too. Those are tough items to find too!
