Often collectors get caught up in the parts of such a piece when they very easily could have been used from a period sword. The money here is in the blade and that's where all the attention should be.
I would agree with Wotan that the eagles on the blade itself are similar to those on the poorly done etched Luft daggers we see from time to time. I would say the damascus itself is not as poor as is seen on the postwar pieces that pop up but I would be very careful with this one.
