JMO, I don't see anything that looks fake except the portopee. Mix and match for sure...overly polished Eickhorn guard and scabbard, Holler blade looks ok to me, WKC or Holler type Pommel (can't tell which for portopee).  Kevin.

I agree with Kevin that only the knot is a fake. The other parts are non-matching and heavily cleaned.
Regards,
Frank

Personally, I don't like the blade. It wouldn't be for me.

To really get at the truth ,and be able to answer your inquiry properly, it would have to be disassembled , then shown with closer detail, to better see all the parts.The knot is obscuring the view of those handle parts, and although i also don't like the grip , as it seems to have no shape, and IS apparent the blade has been buffed angled across the grain by someone(hurt it right off by 50% by someones attempt to clean it up). This dagger, with no other help to be able to see it in pieces to be able to see its parts more concisely, leaves me with apprehension and doubt about anybody being able to help you.
