I took it, because it very low price, although I doubt of this dagger, because in particular the graved line is totally around the scabbard's fittings, instead of the front side only. Can you tell me your opinion?

The lines going around both sides of the scabbard bands is not a good sign.
Actually, it is a good indication that it is a fake or post war made.

Scabbard should be tapered from throat to tip. Parallel sides is an indicator of a 1970's-80's repro.
