Hi Guys,
More Pics, I got him to take a photo with coins, so what do you think?.
He added that in the photo the Top Cross guard does not sit right because, he striped it down to take a look at the tang, and this revelied that it was marked with the words and letters of, P+D and the word DAMAST,so that the top guard could be back to front. What do you think???

Paul,
I can you for certain that the grip is a replacement/copy/fake. The contours are all wrong. Also the SS rune button is too big.
I would have to see the rest in hand to say more, but I would advise you to pass it up unless you can get it seen by an expert.
I will send you pictures of a real grip.
Regards,
Dave
