Hello and welcome to the forum! 
At a quick glance it looks okay. If it is as it appears, congratulations!
There will be more opinions for sure.

A little rough but looks good to me.

Hi Klash..welcome to the forum...glad you joined up..maybe in time..place your user name in Pink status . The 1198 is an unknown maker and the 39 is the year in which it was produced. The small SS runes beneath the RZM number is correct also which is common for this 1198 maker. This Producer appears to had a production run of 3 yrs 1938-40.
Your dagger has seen its better days...and is a RZM Diamond in the rough for mid to later period collectors. Through the fog..your dagger also appears to have retained much of its crossgrain. Nice to see that. Sacrilege is a holy word in my book..and when I see a dagger reversed in its scabbard..my blood runs cold..that like finger nails on a blackboard.
The hanger is worn but still lovely and Im curious if you make see the date or numbering stamped into the leather. This dagger for its unknown producer among the RZM collectors ..is a mid range rarity. The best part of this whole ensemble..is that it was left untouched all these years..with history frozen in time. These Vet finds have to be on the top of the list..of actually speaking to you the history of that period. Love it . Untouched and un messed with...you have a great late period SS dagger in worn but third owner condition..with your grandfather being the second. Thankyou for showing this time piece..and Merry Christmas. Best Regards Larry
It is not the size of a Collection in History that matters......Its the size of your Passion for it!!

Thank you all for the kind words, It's much appreciated. I hope I get to have my name in pink some day as well! I have only shared a few of my helmets and this dagger with you all so far, but I have a bunch more!
Also -- Here is another pic of the RZM stamping on the hanger leather - It appears to say RZM 2/105/38 (I could be wrong with the 105 part) Here's a pic:
Merry Christmas!!!!

HI Klash thankyou for the pic..I rotated it for you for a better view. The 38 is the year of production and yet...not an impossible combination. Very Nice. Nice piece of History that talks to you. Regards Larry
Looks like a 105 to me also

Looks like an original piece, to my eyes, but extremely poorly stored for the last 70 years. A shame, as the condition figures heavily into it's worth.
