Diplomatic Dagger Repro?

[schmidtman]

Gentlemen I am relatively new to collecting. A bit of advice please. I have a Diplomatic Officers Dagger in nice condition which reading the forums makes me believe it is reproduction. The mother of pearl handles are still cream coloured not yellow tinged. Ths blade is marked F W Holler, Berlin. I believe this is probably the main give away
I know without pictures it is difficult but can anyone confirm if they feel that it is what I suspect. I will now obviously part with it anyone any idea what I should ask to sell it
Many thanks

Judging by your description, you likely have a repro. The blade is certainly not correct. Though not all grip plates turn yellow, it should not be a cream colour. The originals carry simulated white mother of pearl grips. Most repro daggers are fitted with solid color (cream) grips.
