UBB.threads Forums Edged Weapons Miscellaneous Dagger Forum NPEA Dagger, ok?

This dagger does not look correct to me. The school markings should be stamped. The grip color and grain is not the usual for this school and time period. The blade maker mark etching looks too thin. The lug on the scabbard looks too long. Pictures of the ends of the grip when taken apart would confirm my suspicions, plus a look at the tang.
