Here is one I picked up today. Not the best condition but I do believe it is the real thing. Please let me know your thoughts and opinions.

Hi Steve
Congrats wtih your Nice Rohm Dagger. I see Eickhorn in all the detail,s
NIce find, you will need good up close photo's of the Rohm etch for the experts but I have a good feeling about it esp with the low logo.

Im liking it alot...trying to get through the smear on the blade which we commonly we see sometimes with someone trying to hide something. The dagger and details associated including the SA gruppe is 110% correct for this Rohm dagger to be distributed to the "Ho" Hochland district.
The blade is pitted which some of the dedication also is pitted. For someone just picking this up...it looks to be a hell of a pickup. .
A few more photos as per Johns "Maximus" request of the etch dedication..would be helpful. Looks great !!

I am not seeing any red flags on it, aside from the very rough condition. I think it would very much benefit from abit of a careful and light clean up.

Not sure if these pictures are any better of the etch. Maybe someone would have some tips on how to capture the etch better. I will say this that the etch is nice and deep.
Im still liking it ...use no direct light as it reflects back into the lense...an indirect house light in a very light colored room and a macro function on your camera setting will bring up the details that are needed to see.
