    Looks good to me but pics could be better. WKC Made Late War Daggger I believe but wait for the experts as this is just my 2 cents.

    My Observations :..Im seeing an early to mid period grip with an upper nickel crossguard and tang nut ..that has signs of being opened at some point and may explain why the lower guard doesnt fit that well to the grip. Overall..all fittings are original and IMO the blade may have been added at some point.

    Compare the condition of the near immaculate scabbard to the grip that has some wear and scratch issues. How can one especially the scabbard that swings in motion have no wear to it compared to the grip.

    I do find it acceptable to see late period SA daggers that were fitted together for production ...but to see opposite ends of the spectrum in condition scabbard Vs grip ...I am very skeptical.

    Now when I take a look second time with no hurry like earlier, it is obvious like Larry say.

    Comu ..the same rule applies with all daggers ...and must be posted separately unless you are comparing the same Producer type for a discussion.

    All daggers MUST be posted in their own threads. Last and Final warning !!
