Diplomats Dagger Opinions

[lauraly]

I have been offered this one but I am pretty sure it is a repro with an army blade and luft scabbard?

What do you think, opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you post a detailed picture of the logo plz...

Unfortunately these are the only pictures I have of the dagger at the moment, I have requested more. As soon as I receive them I will post.

I have noticed that the makers mark say Holler Berlin which I guess answers my own question that it is indeed a repro.

Diplo dagger

Even from these pictures alone I am afraid it is definitely not a genuine Diplomats dagger.
Looks like a 2nd Luftwaffe scabbard and cannot see enough of the blade to say whether it is an original Army or 2nd Luft.

Best wishes.

Spanish reproduction. All you need to look at is the grip. No mother of pearl here, just milk white plastic. Wrong finish to the dagger, wrong scabbard, wrong maker's mark, a total fake.
