Hitler Youth knife: M7/11 E Knecht & Co., Solingen

[EVILMIKE]

M7/11 Transitional in such as it has the RZM & Maker Mark but no Motto

Dated 1938

LFS marked hanger

Finger guard is interesting as its bent over really tight, perfect for a HJ member no good for an adult today

Another old ebay pickup i believe

Condition seems good. Am I right in thinking that the build quality was generally very good for these?

 

[EVILMIKE]

I would say on the whole yes Pat, theres not a whole bunch of things to go wrong other than material quality, but if you think of it in terms of fit, of the diamond, grips, hangers then everything is always seemingly spot on. As a private purchase piece i imagine lots of quality checks from the rzm etc to ensure the high standard, even after materials changed to plated hilts for example
