Hello,

can you take a look and tell if the engraving is genuine or just a fake...

Thanks

Tobi,
No question the dagger itself is real.....but the "Skull & IR 16" engraving is "way over the top" IMO..... technically not impossible...but without direct "vet" documentation I wouldn't believe it ..... not for one minute!

If your grandfather brought this home....I might believe it.... otherwise save your money (IMHO)
