this is not my knife but i had to post it here to get a more expierienced opinion on it because it has me scratching my head a bit to be honest,i know a fair bit about HJ knives but i dont know about this,.late war?? early HJ?? would love to hear your thoughts on this one!!!
motto knife with high ricasso & RZM marked eickhorn,.i see a couple of things off the bat,.also grip plate has a slightly different pattern.i dont know if there is movement in diamond or what is magnetic & what is not? i think it may be made up of all origional parts,what do you think? is it ok? or am i right to question it.

cheers,
si

Hi Si

This is an original knife, no question.

The 'stretch' grip plates are most often seen on many early no-ricasso knives but as is the case here, also seen on later blades with a ricasso.

It has the early smaller diamond as well, no issues.

Regards

Russ
