Not a repro since they were never produced pre-1945 but an interesting piece with the Krebs maker mark.

I love that grip

There was a mini-RAD that I believe to be pre-May 45.

Yes, Alcoso made an Officer's model, but I've never heard of an enlisted mini pre-1945. If you have info, please share

And for what it's worth, the officer model is VERY convincingly reproduced. One of the dead giveaways of the repro is a blade that bends easily - almost as if it were made of lead. The scabbard is almost undetectable.

I have an officers one with a bendy blade, only cost me $180 but it sure looks good. Bright orange grip as well. Marked Alcoso, very hard to tell from the real thing.

Hi,I have just aquired a hewer the same as Vernes here in UK,it is pristine,has anyone any idea of value,I paid £47.00 sterling.Grip

I doubt that you will get any comment on this question as it is a, not common & b, post period.

I think it just up to the individual to decide what they would be prepared to pay for it.

That might get an answer. I think it would be interesting too!

I would be content to know that I got a good deal.....which you certainly did

You are right Vaughan,badly phrased question.Happy,yes,it sits nicely next to its full size brother.Grip.

hi these are being made in germany and sold in the uk by some very well known people but at £50 a pop seems fair to me.
thanks dippy

Dippy,
I like your screen name. I assume your name is Matt?

I've always thought if my name were Craig, my screen name would then be "CraigsMarine".

hi nice one i like your sense of humour but no actually i have a nother reason to call myself dipomatt,have a guess and if you get it right i will post a pic.
thanks dippy on the mat
