This is a socalled generic A type crossguard. These generic types were not made by one specific maker.

I have seen Eickhorns with generic "A" guards but the other parts puzzle me, Eick produced scabbard but with WKC single side screw...ferrel doesnt look like typical late Eick...white and most probably wood or plaster core grip(looks like imatation Ivory!) is not typicly seen on Eicks either. Very confused dagger! Kevin.

Good observations Kevin, not one I could home.
War is when your government tells you who the enemy is. Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.

Junk. I gave it to my nephew and told him to use it for a fishing knife! Rod

Haven't seen the blade but if it has a nice original Eickhorn blade it still is a expensive fishing knife! Danny
