The dagger in the photos provided appears to be good but the grip Im not sure and would wait to hear from Oleg or Danny.
Wait for more thoughts before purchasing anything sold in low light.

Hello Toecutter,
at the first glance seems the dagger to be an original. But a better pictures of the eagle and of the grip will be needed. The dagger is not an early one.
Best,
Oleg.
Thanks!Here are a couple more pics.
Hello Toecutter,
in my opinion is the dagger OK. You must turn the grip around the tang of the blade.
Best,
Oleg.
Thanks Oleg!Do you mean the grip is on backwards?It has some hair line cracks in it.
My pleasure.
Yes, I do. I mean the grip is on backwards.
Best,
Oleg.
It sounds confusing ..but when you man backwards does the grip need to be twisted from back to front or the whole grip taken off the tang and turned from bottom to top ?by thebig
Best Larry

Gentlemen,
I know, unfortunately is my English not the best.The grip must be turned around the tang.
Best,
Oleg.
Hi Oleg ..your English grammar is correct even from an English speaking term.
Anyone could of used those same words in verbal or text.
The grip can be backwards and upside down also. I myself have asked many times even locally in a supermarket or an outing when a sentence is phrased to where it does not add up I always ask for clarification.
You have a very good grasp of the English language ..it may be the way I have interpreted it also.
Best Regards Larry
