Germany. An HJ Knife by J.A Henckels Zwillingswerk of Solingen

A third reich period HJ Knife, measuring 251 mm with the scabbard on, featuring a 119 mm long brushed (magnetic) steel blade, with a sharpened edge and a slightly dinged tip. The blade is etched “Blut und Ehre” (German - Blood and Honour), and is maker marked “J.A Henckels Zwillingswerk, Solingen” and “Ges. Geschützt” on the reverse. It is ordained with scratches and light dings from use, as well as light marks common to extraction and return to the scabbard. The thick blackened leather washer at the crossguard is intact and sits tightly in its place. The crossguard consists of a rounded finger guard, with signature black bakelite grip plates on either side of the grip that appears to be cracked in two laces on the obverse, but fully intact on the reverse. The grips are held in place via two rivets with a HJ diamond embedded into the obverse of the grip. Light to moderate surface marks ordain the hilt from period wear, but with the finish having dulled through time. The scabbard is constructed of black painted steel (magnetic) depicting moderate wear and loss of finish, with two coated metal springs on the interior of the scabbard, that hold the knife in place once returned to the scabbard. The leather scabbard hanger is constructed of thick black leather, featuring a snap-button closure to secure the knife into place, with a ripped belt loop. Overall, this HJ knife is a typical example of a well-used knife, in overall very fine condition.
