Okay, I'll give it a careful shot here. I hope others will give their opinions as well some later cause I might be wrong.

The first one, above, is imo a fake one.
The second one, stands a good chance imo. And I carefully would like to call it a 'Herder-type'...
The last one, stands a good chance imo as well. This one I would carefully like to call a typical 'Eickhorn-type'...

Krisse why do you think the first one is a copy??

Because it is a not existing type imo. Never saw this kind of runes button before on an original dagger.
Look to the runesbutton on the F. Herder dagger that I had linked. These daggers are by many collectors also considered as being fake. It is the exact same kind of button as the first one.

The entire dagger is a fake.
