In the above email from Johnson to me 10 plus years ago. I was asking about Alcoso tag variants and at the time here on the forum, a member had removed the scabbard throat to reveal not a luft mark bit a police mark of I remember correctly. I did the same. But Johnson's email he says he has a factory catalog with no reference to Alcoso making this. It was just a comment from another email I had sent him referring to the story here on the forum. I didn't even read that part just skimmed over it to the hang tag stories.
Reading it this morning before posting it. The omission was huge!! Maybe they were made after the Germans purged the family from the Alcoso form. But as seen here on mine it's not a later script long line late mark. But the scales and shows clear the eagle B mark on the rocasso. I will take it apart to show what I mean here in a bit. Just wondering why this was not shown in the catalog??
