I am no expert but, I would say, save your money. I don't like the details or the markings on the hilt.

The eagle appears to be smirking. If anyone buys this dagger the seller will be smirking. If it were really a RAD dagger there should be a RAD emblem on the hilt. I see no evidence of this. I will leave this one alone.

This one is for sale in the classifieds, it is for an EM but, I would not expect any other marking than this one has. Officer's probably had even less markings.
