Looks to me made from parts of an early DLV dagger and a later Luftwaffe dagger. Can we see the other side--whats under the knot and a close up of the TM. The missing throat or built in throat is especially disturbing.

Strictly parts at best with a fake cross guard IMO. Looks like some of the stuff we used to see in the 60's.

Might be some original parts, the crossguard to my best knowledge and experience is postwar pure fantasy.

"Never look for sqare eggs" as a late owner of an original FHH-dagger used to say.
