Hi there, Is this an original one? I was always told the diamond shouldn't follow the forms of the grip...

Not sure if this belongs here, but I have been wanting to buy a HJ knife in mint state for some time now. I came across the lakesidetrader website where I saw a Near mint/Mint HJ knife for $1,249 USD (Transitional Model 1933 Hitlerjugend Fahrtenmesser by J.A. Henckels of Solingen 1938) Can I...

Hi guys! Here is my transitional Eickhorn HJ knife. (Sorry for the bad phone photos) BR Sandor

I first want to say thank you for letting me post and yes, I've read your forum forum rules. I'm going to come out and say it because that's how I am. I have nothing to offer anyone here on German WWII era knives. Or for that matter anything HJ. But that's why I'm here. Because I don't know &...

New to the forum. I'm trying to research but can't see others' posted images without posting first, so here ya go. Been after WWII german militaria for some time now (mainly helmets) but just picked this HJ up today at an antique store for a decent price. Looks to be legit, as it passes all of...

Hi All, I am a new member here. I used to collect Third reich items many years ago but drifted to other militaria following deluge of fake items. However, after a recent hitler youth knife purchase, I have found myself drawn back in ! What I do like about collecting these days are forums like...

Hello, I just bought this HJ knife for 350 Euros , i would like some opinions on the dagger and if the price was good, Best Regards Tobias

This first item is from a friend's collection. Most of his items have good provenance, but this one is difficult. The inlay is pristine, but the blade is well-scuffed and the fittings are rather dark. This second item is not directly HJ, and is post-War, but I'm told there are...

As mentioned already on another thread, the German Militaria seller WEITZE.COM, has sunken to a new low, and has joined in on the trade in the Fantasy DJ knives. Offering two at the moment. Buyer beware. If anyone is thinking of purchasing these from them, do yourself a favour and challenge...

Hi guys Enclosed a pic of a producer mark, of which I do not know the producers name. It is pictured in Johnsons book "Collecting the Edged...." vol. 5, page 238 as an "Uncommon Proofmarks 1933-45", but no name mentioned. Do any of you hav a name on this mark: And a second question: below...

I would be grateful for opinions on this knife by Hans Julius Krebs. The blade seems to be in exceptionally good condition when compared with the rest of the knife. I attach some pics. Thanks, Peter

I would be grateful for opinions on this knife by to me an unknown maker. It is not in the best of condition, but am wondering if this is an unusual maker. I attach some pics. Thanks, Peter

I started collecting Hitler Youth knives a little while back. My collection is small and I'm still constantly learning about them. A friend of mine new I collected them and discovered this in a shop overseas and brought it back to me. Is this an incredible fake or an incredible find? I've tried...

I would be grateful for opinions on this knife. I attach some pics. Thanks, Peter

From a smaller manufacturer A. Schüttelhöfer handel of ribbed plastic and magnetic iron handle. Just in from Germany

This knife was sold as genuine. I know the scabbard is fake but what about the knife ?

Hi guys Yesterday evening I got this beautiful never used HJ-knife. It is so beautiful, that I will share the moment of joy with you. On the close-up pics of the blade I can se some needle pin size spots, but when you have it in hand you can not se it. The white liners inside the scabbard is...

Was checking Erdmann Militaria, and stumbled across a period photo, showing stunning new evidence for the DJ knife. .... er...... er...... no wait, that DJ lad is wearing what kinda looks like the normal HJ/DJ knife? :pound: Ein bissel spaß muss sein.

From 1943.
