Hi all!
My first post, after lurking in the shadows for a while. Excellent and very well needed forum, I will definitely be more active in the future!
Im in a debate with a friend of mine about this RZM M7/13 (Schuttelhofer) knife. Cause of the discussion is the "casting seam" tendencies on the inside of the fingerguard (one of the old signs, as we all know but still - a late production piece). The seam is not very long and does not continue outside the red lines thats in one of the pictures. What do you guys make of this?
As for the diamond, it has obviously been replaced, and in its place is a (I would say original) HJ cap insignia.
The somewhat matt or strange looking finish on the blade is because it is covered by a thin layer of gun grease.
The knife shows a normal amount of wear throughout and has the not-so-uncommon marks from tent pegs or whatever on the top of the hilt (I realised I missed that in the pictures).
Any input would be greatly appreciated and if any more pictures are needed, please just let me know.
All opinions are more than welcome!
Thank you all in advance, and cheers!
