Denny the point I was making is that a person can take two original daggers and reconfigure them and make an easy $2500.00.But with your estimate of value they would bring $19000.00 for a profit of $7000.00 just by switching scabbards and if a m33 no-maker was to bring $11000.00 what is going to stop people from re-grinding them.Also any original M36 dagger without the scabbard would be worth 6-7 grand.I don't and won't buy it.One more thing .Just because it is rarer does not make it more valuable demand figures in the equation.I would rather have a maker marked dagger over non-maker and that goes for all of them,except a chained SS.
