Re: WTB 8 /9 Inch Steel Lined Coricama
Here is the 13” after Tim took it apart and sanded it all
down and buffed it to death. You can see damage and blistering around every pin. A tell tale sign of the it being taken apart.

I’m sure there are examples like that. Someone should do some digging and find out.portlandmike wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 9:38 pm Don’t some of those knives marked Rostfrei Import have blades that are too long for German import laws?

Re: Rostfrei Import tang stamp and 1 on back tang
I'm not saying the ones marked "Rostfrei Import" were not sent to Germany- but why mark them with the English "Import?" "Import" in German is also spelled "import" as is it in Dutch. Great to know.
