Any early HJ with a motto in decent condition is scarce, but I don't think there is a scarcity rating like SA's. In my experience, Grawiso is one of the more common ones, not as common as Eickhorn though. Hugo Koller is more scarce. Congrats! John

Yes, a very nice early HJ-knife it is. The "Grawiso" logo was replaced by the "G.Grafrath logo" on the 1936 dated ricasso knifes. See this earlier post:

Without ricasso, like yours, the variation is not that common in my experience.

Best greetings,

Herman
