This dagger has 1 problem: the crossguard is a generic A type, and not the WKC Type 4 Tomahawk style.
The scabbard with 1 side throatscrew is a typical WKC treat.
Logo's can be placed higher or lower, depends on the guy who applied them, there was no strick order to place them on 1 spot only.
Grip colours vary on sunlight UV exposure time, with a very wide range, white to lemon yellow up to red and dark brown.
Cheers

Thanks for the timely response, gerrit. I can't believe I didn't spot the crossguard! So would this mean that it's a 'parts-dagger'? (with the crossguard switched for a generic A type) or is this something that is seen on other WKC daggers?

IMO the Original guard has been replaced, most likely a denazified one.

May be a replacement guard, or not? I believe WKC made the A generic as a fitting to sell to other makers.. design is just to similar IMO. Take the appearance of the A gen on Eickhorns, and I have witnessed one from the Vet like that.. Eick only swapped with WKC IMO.. Is this dagger apt to be questioned? YES, but it has a chance of being original configuration I think. best, Kevin.
