No, to my knowledge, they did not make early, maker-marked SS daggers.

That said, it appears that when the SS ordered that all Rohm inscription daggers were to have the Rohm inscription ground off, some SS Mann sent his Eickhorn Rohm dagger to WKC to have the inscription removed. This was done but the craftsman engraved a WKC Knights Head Logo on the blade. So, yes there is one SS dagger with a WKC logo, but it began life as an Eickhorn. If you own TW's SS book, it is shown there.

So it should have a bench mark number on the crossguard 1 to 9??

Maybe. I've seen a of of early Eickhorn SS/SA/NSKK and many (most?) had benchmarks but a lot did not. I never tried to keep track of how many.
