probably that mark appears a bit strange due to a hardly buffed blade but otherwise the hardware is 100% eickh

It looks like gold gilt has been applied over Swastika damage on pommel.

Winfried, thanks for the nice pictures.
I agree that this dagger is original but perhaps slightly restored.
Regards,
Frank
