Ron,

Great point about the many fakes that are on the market. This fact IMO really hurts the value of the original daggers as potential buyers are scared off. When I first started this dagger was low on the list due the many pitfalls. BUT if you study the real deal and network with known experts you will be fine.

I can count one one hand the amount of original minty examples I have seen in 6 years.

Also IMO M36 daggers are not rare at all, just in high demand. (Owned 7-8) Only owned 1 full Rohm.
