Scabbard is later since it's plated, a mismatch. I think the dagger is OK, but would be nice to see close up of the tang, runes button, and close up of the assembled grip front and back.

I concur this is a good dagger blade has some condition issues obviously but nothing that someone couldn't "live with" dependent upon price. Handle is beautiful and fittings are nicely toned. I agree with opinion expressed concerning the scabbard. cheers and regards, Ryan

The dagger itself appears to be good. The grip might or might not have been refinished, due to its shine. Usually, they have a duller finish. The scabbard appears to have been painted or, more likely, repainted.
