I don't think it's a reproduction as much as it might be a legitimately produced postwar scout type knife. The Hubertus brand has been seen on a number of legitimately produced but postwar boy scout type knives which makes me think this is a postwar item as opposed to a reproduction. From the pics, it looks like the HJ emblem might have been added subsequent to manufacture because of what looks like glue residue around the edges. The personalization would likely be to a vet.

My 2 cents: "Terry, Ulm Germany" is definitely somethimg to do with GI, not with Hitler Youth.
The HJ diamond looks original, someone has replaced the fleur-de-lys symbol with it.
Scabbard is of the same construction as scabbards made before 1945 - no throat, magnetic (I guess).
The blade, i.e. logo is what reveals post war production. No NS daggers were made by Kuno Ritter under the brand name HUBERTUS.
