Gentlemen, I have this dagger in my collection for more than 10 years but since I’m still not an expert in black daggers I would welcome any educated views.
No fight, no glory.

That's a wrong one for sure as the rzm mark should read down towards the tip of the blade

Seany,
Not that one. The orientation is OK.
But the whole dagger looks a little off. Blade too shiny with no crossgrain ... two different colors to the guards ... flat black grip with no marks and a strange SS button.
Sorry, I don't like it.

I totally agree, Seany.
But the blade shown is 1211/39 not 120/34.

The entire dagger has an odd look about it. Far too much explaining would be necessary if you ever had to sell it. I’d recommend looking for another.
