Unfortunately, such is not uncommon. I have seen several altered police swords over the years. I believe Wittmann's SS book lists ALCOSO as an "observed" SS sword maker, but I am not convinced. Better to stick with the Krebs, Dachau and "no maker" examples. Even then, close scrutiny to details, especially to the grip, is called for.
