The best known maker of 3R daggers and swords also produced lots of HJ knifes in many variations.
If you own one, let us know and describe or even better show it! To start with here is a 1940 double marked example. Best greetings, Herman "Het leven is een strijd!"  |

This one has one of the whacky "Lilesia" buttons on the scabbard.

Hi Hermann,
It's the knifes long lost brother .I picked this particular knife sometime back for about $145. They certainly have seen an increase in value over the last couple years. I'd like to play with the numbers and see what kind of contrast HJs proportionately are at. It's the last HJ I have and will probably just hold onto this example till I decide to move the whole collection out and start collecting spoons and salt shakers. Some really nice examples guys. Just and FYI, over at WA in the edged weapons section, a few of the guys did quite a good job putting together a photographic HJ reference. I think it's pinned to the top if anyones interested. __________________________ Collecting Army Swords "Bei Mir Bist du Schön" |

Thanks for the compliments on the Eickhorn Oval HJ. It's hard to show it, but it has all the crossgraining. Here's another attempt, plus I took some pics of my other Eickhorn HJ's.
