Dagger itself is original Heer Holler 3. type, but IMO scabbard is replaced with Eickhorn 2. type one.

Agree with Schlange, scabbard is an Eickhorn product.

Eickhorn scabbard
It does appear to be an Eickhorn scabbard but these producers did occasionally buy and use parts from other producers. If you acquired this dagger from a reliable source or veteran I wouldn’t consider this to be a parts dagger.Comment

Does the scabbard close all the way to the blade washer? A couple of your photos look as though it does not close completely as the scabbard throat screw abuts against the rear of the crossguard. If that is the case.....parts dagger.Comment

Here's a vet acquired Holler with the same type scabbard and dot patternComment

The scabbard is not the same. This is a genetic type which is correct for Höller. The one with the white grip has an Eickhorn scabbard. I agree with the others that an Eickhorn scabbard does not belong to a Höller dagger.

Yes, F.W. Holller was used generic type A scabbard and pommel.
