Everything is original here.
The chain is the so called Type C. (Type I by Wittmann)
The chain was very rusty and dirty and IMO cleaned.
Such pitting in the schackles was not done in the factory.

The dagger itself does not belong originally to this chain.
Being a early and rare ASSO (Sch�ttelh�fer) dagger.
It's possible that the wearer bought a chained scabbard when he was permitted to wear such chain.
