Good day everyone! I found this SA dagger that is missing the scabbard for around $300. My biggest concern is the authenticity so any help would be appreciated as this would be my first SA dagger.
Thanks again!

Hi, I think we need better images of the eagle and the SA button. What I can see the eagle is a late war zinc eagle which lost all finish. E&F Horster for sure made them like this. So for me this looks original.
A bit of a shame there is no scabbard. Also the blade looks polished but the pictures are not very clear. For conclusive answer wait for the knife guys like Larry or Gerrit.
I would personally safe my hard earned shekels, put in a few $100 more and buy a complete one.
Thanks for the feedback, I have attached some more photos and I’m gonna see if wiggle room on the price
Some discussions have said these were Liberation put togethers due to grip eagle practically sitting on top of the wood ... others had said poor late period assembly. Its difficult to say which way it went...yet the materials are period made.
Price is negotiable and would not pay $300 for it. Thats just me.
Regards Larry

Looks original in rough condition. I would not be a buyer at $200. Finding a loose scabbard to go with it is not easy. Wait for a complete one in better condition.
