Hi, I’m new in this field, so I need your help. I have bought this dagger and I think that the dagger is original but your opinion will be highly appreciated.

I’m worried about the numbers stamped on the hilt and scabbard..What is the meaning of these number and it is a common occurrence.

Nice early (manufactured immdiately after the socalled "full stag" grips) original hewer.
The # is a period inventory number, "Bn" to my best knowledge stands for the RAD-Gaukammer Baden.
Originally the numbers did match but afterwards it happened that scabbards/herwers were switched.
Regards,

"Never look for sqare eggs" as an owner of an original FHH-dagger uses to say.
