Not good. This dagger has been for sale for quite a while. This is a new set of photos of it. Notice how they are cropped just above the trademark. In fact, the trademark is too far from the crossguard for the blade to be authentic. The other parts may be good,

Last photo in ad. Very poor fit to tang opening (even for an "Eickhorn")and wrong placement of the trademark. Pretty clever camera work, though.

Gunbroker eh:
I quit looking there some time ago. If there's ever a legit piece for sale it was either posted by accident or they're asking near retail as a starting bid. Roll Eyes
IMO: If you are unwilling or unable to dig items out of the woodwork; Buy from fellow collectors and dealers you know.

Lot's of work and need to spend a lot of time and have a lot of luck to find one in the weeds today. Wink

That SA Rohm is as authentic as the SS EM Artillery visor he's selling.
