Welcome
I assume you are asking for originality and it would be best to post your text in English as this website is English speaking.
I also changed your thread title to " Eickhorn 2nd Model Luftwaffe dagger for review "
From what I can see in your photos the dagger overall appears to be all Eickhorn fittings and not too sure if the scabbard is or not.
There is a missing scabbard band and also a piece came off from the top of your grip.
The pommel has been very worn down and I dont know how the Gold gilt survived on one side and not the other.
Speak English for the community here please.
Regards Larry

Thank you Larry
gilding on the other hand also preserved, but really slightly. Is this really an original piece? Thank youby Huddy
The dagger is authentic ...after viewing the gilt swastika under extreme close up ..the better side of the pommel with the gilt has been applied postwar or as of recently.
There are depressions and scratching on the swastika that should of removed the gilt. Most producers were not as fortunate as the producer SMF as it was easy for the Gold gilt to wear off.
Overall the dagger is authentic...with a few details I name above in post #2

Larry, do you mean that gilding or the whole warhead was applied after the war? Is it possible that one side would be worn by clothing? Thank you
