Public congrats, Zako, from the other bidder.
It is a bummer when you have to do some work, so you miss something like this.
It is the first fatty that I have seen on Swedish soil.

I saw that one on Tradera, you're lucky he only would ship within Sweden or Scandinavia

This is a blessed day! Got her today and all I have to say is: ...........
Well, I'm just speechless.
I'll give you the facts and pictures.
Heljestrand, Eskilstuna, no other markings exept for an "u" on the monkeytail.
Bakelite scales in good shape with red-brown spacer.
As it seems, no hone-wear and probably not used at all. No rust on the blade itself, some rust on the tang, but not bad, will probably leave some light pitting. No chips or other defects on the edge.
Edge length: 2 3/4"
Edge width: slightly over 7/8", full hollow grind.
Last picture shows her with the Mk31 (5/8) on top and in the middle a Mk32 (6/8), isn't she a beauty!!
Next time you see her she will be in the "Svenskt Stål" forum, shiny and ready for use!
Do you feel lucky, punk? Do you?!!!!Last edited by cako72; 07-10-2009 at 06:38 AM.
