IMO looks fine. Typical Eickhorn Second model.

Jim,
What specifically is creating doubts for you? I've been collecting Navies for 15 years and always enjoy learning something new. BTW, who is the expert?

Far away from being an expert but to me this dagger looks like a totally legit and known variant of a period manufactured EICKHORN dagger under the period use of WKC part/s (the crossguard and perhaps the pommel eagle).
Just my humble opinion due to my limited experiences.

To avoid that the thread gets useless soon I load down the pics from the puplic view site

Looks alright to me. (no expert!) wink

BTW the dagger is already marked "RESERVADA".

Normally the thread opener is asked generally to post the photographs instead of a link!
