Transitional production HJ knife made by J.A. Henckels. Features a magnetic steel hilt with some corrosion. The HJ grip emblem is unbroken and moves left to right when touched. Full-size blade with ricasso bears the HJ motto “Blut und Ehre!” etched on the front. Very hard to see the motto due to wear. The backside is stamped with the “J. A. Henckels Solingen Zwillingswerk” maker’s mark, the “Ges. Geschützt” mark, and the etched Henckels RZM code, though it is very faint. The leather buffer pad is intact. The steel scabbard retains its original black paint. The black leather belt loop is intact and has a working snap button.
