Jim, IMO it is a reproduction. To me it looks like an attempt at a Holler scabbard. Taking aside the fact that there are a number of things wrong to be a Holler, the quality and workmanship is simply not there. There is poor definition of the components. The gilt finish is funky, uneven using some cheap process. The chape is poorly soldered on. Look at the carrying ring lugs. They aren't even the same type. Holler was a fine company and would never let this kind of work go out. Again, my opinion only. PM me and I will fill you in on the rest. Best. Rick
