If the dagger comes from the vet, I have NO PROBLEM with the runes being texbook or not textbook. But, please, that dagger doesn't come from the vet and with all respect to you guys, some of you didn't handle a single modern day high end european fake yet. I did and I see them here and there every week appearing on different auctions here in Europe.
Let's make a test: warthog, you think about giving dagger back to the seller, right? Put it on "for sale" forum for the price of a decent early Klaas. Let's see if anyone will buy it, especially those who give "thumbsup".
