Hi,
I have a very nice German dagger
There are no marks or stamps on the blade.
It is in very good condition!
But is it a real and genuine one?
Please can you people help me out with this one?

first impressions are not good i`m afraid. i`m always hesitant on photographs, but the ferrule looks wrong, the casting detail on the pommel is poor, the top of the grip looks like it doesn`t fit and the scabbard looks poor.

i may be wrong, and i`ll wait , like you, to hear from other more experienced forum members.

but if i was offered that dagger , i`d pass.

It looks like a hand enhanced Heller or E-Pack crossguard, any chance of a frontal close up......of the eagle Smile. It has a wierd looking tang and was possibly shaped for a new grip.
