Kreta,

Looks like a good RZM SS dagger with some scabbard issues. Everything looks like it should.

Grip to lower crossguard fit looks off to me, scabbard aside from chips in paint looks ok.

You could be right, ed, but the curvature looks correct. The shoulders of the grip fit very well, which I always take as a good sign.

Looks all good to me! If it were mine, I would remove the water spots on the blade before they become permanent.
