I am not going to comment on the originality of this dagger other than to say that the handle looks good and the eagle is a perfect fit. It could be a lapel eagle but a cap eagle would be too large to fit this grip IMO.The overall quality is certainly there. In so far as Tom Ws assessment, I have sold to Tom and have purchased from him. Although I like him he is far from perfect and has been known to make a few mistakes. Such has been my experience. cheers, Ryan
