There are things about this dagger that don't seem to fit the "norm". The blade should be an Eickhorn, but the grip look more like a Suhl produced unit with high shoulders. The chain has the middle link on the long side is facing to the left and others I have seen have it facing to the right, the NSKK stamping on the rear seems a little muddled. The details on the eagle links don't look quite right to my eye. I may be getting a little picky but that's what I see. Others may have seen this exact same chain on daggers accepted as original.

I have some concerns as well. As well as what LARRY points out I do not like the the gold wash.
What is the provenance?

Is the upper suspension ring on the scabbard not welded/soldered?
