Have we seen this dagger before? It seems familiar to me, currently available here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6602...TRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

What does everyone think? I don't like the grip, the eagle, crossguards - lower one in particular, including the fit to the grip and the blade. The motto doesn't seem to sit right either or is that just my eyesight? This maker has been faked in the past too... no?

I don't like it either. Roll Eyes
SS-button seems to be too big, and the motto too far from the crossguard. General fit looks bad.

There's another 807/36 for sale on WAF btw...

Hi is it just me or do the upper and lower crossguards appear odd shaped and rather thin? Thanks and cheers, Ryan

Its similar to the Repro that was asked about a few days ago, rounded guards, low motto on blade, odd look grip. Another I would get in the car and step on the gas to get away from.
