Sweet grouping! I assume it's a put together group, not original to the photo? Someone at a show said we are not collectors, but "completers" that is we put groupings together

Many thanks!
Of course, kit matched to the knife and photo. Actually, all my frames are collected in accordance with knives, always different.
Best regards!

I have chosen this dirk because of this patina. Well, and hilt in silvered zinc liked.
Best regards!

It's always a pleasure to see a blade dual marked with maker & distributor. Grat patina too!

Vat69, the relatively early custom daggers, those with the true silvered iron scabbard fittings (only those could tarnish) mostly have true silvered leightweight grip fittings. At least WKC had them this way and as far as I can recognize in these pics this EICKHORN does look the same. It is also interesting to know that EICKHORN and WKC had some connections and did use alternately some of their dagger parts.
