I have seen some good Rohms (or at least so say the "experts") that have the dedication that is not ceneterd on the ridge, sagging a little low, so that alone is not a big concern to me. I took some better pictures but they are still not that great. It is not a "re-etch" from what I can tell. The rest of the dagger is totally correct, including all parts, including scabbard. I have not had the time to take it down and look at tang markings. There are characteristics in the maker mark that send mixed signals, good and bad. The lettering in the etch looks correct to me in comparisons so far. Still, I can't help but to wonder about this dagger.... I need to find the time to get the conditions right and get some really good ones. So for now, these will have to do.
