When guys ask me "Which one should I get?", I always recommend to them get the best one you can afford! Condition is the most desirable characteristic (in the majority of cases) so it will always be sought after and you will never have anyone saying anything other than how beautiful it really is! Well this one is beautiful! The blade on this one is a real treat! The acid etched "Alles für Deutschland" motto and "Aug. Knecht Solingen" maker mark are both very dark, crisp and beautifully executed! The crossgrain is easily visible all the way from the hilt to the tip. The fit remains nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfect point! This blade rates in at an easy Exc++/NM. It only shows the common surface scratches and minor age spotting. The steel based, brown anodized scabbard is gorgeous. It remains completely dent free and retains 95%+ of its original factory lacquer, that has age toned with time! Just beautiful! The solid nickel scabbard fittings look excellent matching the crossguards in color and patina! The ball continues to retain its original round shape and all four scabbard screws remain tightly intact. The reverse of the lower crossguard is marked "No" (Nordsee). The brown grained hardwood grip looks beautiful! It only shows the slightest pressure marks throughout and one wee hairline just above the roundel. No chips or flakes! The solid nickel eagle retains beautiful details and has a perfect fit. The SA roundel has a perfect fit and retains 99%+ of its enamel. Look no further this is the one for your collection!
