Sorry - one more remark to the quality of the work. I could be mistaken, but my opinion after eight years spent in Africa is, that you will never find absolutely "clean details" on the brass (or any other copper alloys) African artefacts comming from 20 th century (to find this you should go deep to old Benin Kingdom times) - and artefacts from the very beginning of 20 th century are considered "old", here. Ornamentation on the sheath and handle is made well, whether it is fake or genuin dagger.
