This fixed blade side knife was issued to the German Youth Corps Boy Scouts. All is original, but definitely used. The German Boy Scout Fleur-di-lief is in a diamond on the right grip . The red coloration may or may not be original. The blade was last sharpened long ago & is marked "SOLINGEN / GERMANY" on the right side. On the left side is the Outstretched Hand holding 3 arrows pointing toward the blade. The original leather washer is still in good condition. The grip scales show no damage and are held on by solid rivets. Now for the downside --- the back strap has dents in it w it was apparently used as a hammer (see photo -- looks worse than it is) & the curved part of the blade tang has been broken off, as seen in the photos.. The all original scabbard is a composition with leather Belt Loop & retainer with snap. The leather is marked "Made in Germany" on the blade side & the scabbard is marked "OBGM" on the top back. T is scuffing on the scabbard & the initials "RW" and maybe the rest of the name lightly scratched into the front side. 3-days inspection & return priveleges less postage, Charlie Harris
