I have one like this as well, however mine has different crossguard and pommel,,also my scabbard bands are different as well as the wire on my grip is the standard twisted brass,,I see your handle appears to be Trolon as well as mine is,,
the ferrule is on upside down also,,
Maybe some one with more experience can tell if this is original Krebs hardware or if they used several types of crossguard/pommel configurations,,
I like yours its very well hand detailed

I don't want to be a spoil sport, but is it possible that the blade has been buffed? The makers mark seems to be just slightly washed out, and there appears to be a water mark / pitting near the tip which has the appearance of having been buffed. As well, I have never seen a chain used in place twisted wire. If the guard is in fact held in place by adhesive, I would treat this dagger with caution.
Please take my remarks for what they are worth, I could be wrong on all of the above.
