Hoping that some of you will kindly provide your opinion regarding the authenticity of this dagger. Insofar as I can tell, it appears genuine, but most of my knowledge comes from books and photographs....

Links are ferromagnetic, and appear in two cases to have been re-soldered.

Thank you much for your input!

Did the dagger come with a blade, or just the scabbard, grip, and crossguards? :))) perhaps a maker marked blade?

Forgot to add them!

The blade does not feature a maker mark, which, as I recall, was not uncommon...

It looks like a typical, authentic "Type II" M36.

Looks like an honest M36 IMO . Scabbard was likely repainted at some point as this vintage dagger generally sported an anodised scabbard and also has a 2 screw ramp which is usually associated with an anodised scabbard . I could be wrong as the paint looks pretty old/original . Nice dagger .
