German WWII > Edged Weapons > Hitler Youth and DJ Knives > RZM Hitler Youth Knives

Here's a nice RZM piece! The bright, thick blade on this one looks excellent! The crossgrain is stunning and runs the full length of the blade! The dark and crisp "RZM M7/13" (Arthur Schuttelhofer & Co., Solingen) maker mark is also beautifully executed! The tip comes to a sharp point and the fit remains perfectly tight! The blade on this one rates NM. The original leather buffer pad remains intact. The steel based, black enamel painted scabbard remains in excellent condition! It remains completely dent free and retains 98% paint coverage! It shows the odd spot throughout and minor oxidizing. The leather is worn but undamaged. It continues to have a well working snap. The alloy based, nickel plated hilt on this one is in great shape, retaining 90%+ plating coverage! The black checkered celluloid grip plates have a crack to the reverse. ! The HJ diamond has good enamel.
