I have an RZM Dagger that seems to be a Parts compilation. I am looking for some clarity on what it is and what parts might be original. Thanks.

Having the black scabbard makes this a NSKK dagger and I'll leave other question to the experts.
Somebody will be along.

Welcome to the forum!
All the parts look original.

I agree with Ade that all the fittings are authentic. The crossguards appear to be the early type ..but towards the end of the production period ...they are sometimes expected to be seen as to complete to assembly from existing inventory. I see no other issues with this dagger being a late period example.
In the photos provided I agree also that the scabbard is a darker color brown. NSKK were painted or purchased black to designate the difference between the SA and NSKK. If this scabbard is black..please provide better photos...overall I see a late period dagger correct whether the scabbard is Black or brown
