Confirmation of fake FS Dagger , Bad etchings

[Australia]

G'day collectors , Almost positive this is a fake 2nd pattern fs dagger , most likely from India , etchings look really bad (click on pic to zoom) Thick cross guard .

Just wanting confirmation please .

If you don't want this one, I will take it off your hands.
I'm no expert but I like this one.

Thanks chopperman I did not buy it , a friend brought it without getting it checked out first . I am sure it's a replica ,

Cross guard is too thick , etchings are of poor quality , just to name a few things ,

Any further comments welcome !

I don't like the scabbard, ... but I would want a closer inspection of the dagger itself.
Normally the etching fault is a miss spelling of Wilkinson.

Thanks gentlemen. Personally I think it has all the signs of being a known indian copy .
