Some additional information--when we saw these daggers in the 70's-along with many other repros-in my memory-the fake Postschutz daggers did not have chains -also when seen in hand they did not have good definition of parts,and had, as Ron said- the wrong finish. Originals have bright nickel plated fittings while the fakes have yellowish or dull colored fittings. Also you might notice that the fake grips are a bit too thick in the center. It is also interesting to note that these 60's-70's fakes are very seldom seen today-and there were hundreds if not thousands on the market at one time. Where are they? In collections-all over the world.
