I know nothing about daggers but the engraving (if that's what it is) is garbage.

I believe that dagger surfaced sometime in the late 80's, and has went from dealer to dealer, each claiming it was Eicke's.
Do not let high-profile names cloud you on questionable items. There is a very high profile dealer offering, at this very minute, a "handmade SS Chained variant" dagger as original, despite me pointing out to him several years ago that I once owned it as a filler piece. The dagger is real (but has been repolished in the last 4-5 years), as is the scabbard. The chain and scabbard fittings are indeed handmade- but handmade in the Bloomington, Indiana area circa 1985. He's offering it as a bargain at $4995. His story to me when I told him it was boogered up was that it had to be real because there was another in a "advanced" collection.
