I admit I'm not an HJ collector but thought I'd post a few pics of this one currently on Eban, I'm sure it won't last for a variety of reasons which are obvious to all of us. I know the scabbard lip is a bad sign but I'm presuming the etched RZM logo too? One thing I'm sure of, it isn't from Grandpa's estate as is alleged in the auction narrative. http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-GERMAN-DAGGER-SCABBARD-WITH-SW...QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

These pieces seem to be made better & better. Seller says it's a total of 18".

Yes, it's a fake, and the reverse of the blade is stamped 'Germany'. A good one to add to the fake HJ thread - thanks Billy.

Russ,
My pleasure to help. Seems the Eban Gestapo got to it already, what a shame.
