RAD Enlisted Mans Hewer with hanger [M1934] by Carl Jul. Krebs Solingen

This RAD Dagger by Krebs is in EXC condition throughout. Model 1934 for RAD Hewer. The total length is 40.0 cm. The Hewer has the maker mark on the blade: Carl Jul. Krebs in Solingen.

Grip: The grip plates are real beauties, being genuine antler and having very pleasing colors to the raised grains. They are mostly a dark coffee color, with lighter areas on the raised sections. These grip plates are retained by two screws and spanners. The crossguard is a fine example, having all of the original darkening in the two grooves that extend to an upward curl at the end.

Blade: The blade is in EXC condition, with a fine narrow fuller. The obverse facing bears the RAD motto, “Arbeit Adelt”. The reverse ricasso is marked with the Krebs trademark, a crown set above the letter “K” along with the firm's name Carl Jul. Krebs and a location of Solingen and is etched with a RAD triangle, the protected patent term “Ges Gesch”. and number "239".

Scabbard: The scabbard shell is completely straight and repainted. The nickel-plated scabbard mounts are also beauties. These embellishments are in crisp. As is always the case with these pieces there is a line of beading that runs around the edges of the mounts where they meet the scabbard shell.
