It looks like a knife that I first remember seeing in the 1980s. I think it’s German manufactured but not 100% sure.

Top pic is a Heer(Army) Unteroffizier (Corporal) from I would guess an artillery or Pioneer (engineer) regiment #350. Bottom pic is an Army Hauptfeldwebel (First Sgt) who has seen some action, with Iron cross (2nd class) ribbon and other (Ost front?) and what may be a Panzer badge. IMO both pics would be after 1940.

Thanks for your help.  I might still might offer him a few bucks for it.  I cant afford a real one yet and it would still look good next to my other stuff. 

The scabbard should be made from pressed steel. The scabbard on this one is cast white metal which didn’t happen pre 1945.

Fake. The biggest give away is the lip on the scabbard. And it says made in Germany. Fakes have no value. $25 is the highest I would pay for a German made fake. $0 for a Chinese fake. 

The seller says its RMZ  but i don't see any markings on it.  if it is fake i would still like it for displaying  what would be a fair price for a fake?   Jason

want to know about this dudes thankful for help

I'd like to make a correction...  On closer inspection, I did see the "2" in the "21" from post #4. My prime suspicion was that the pin clasp at the bottom of the reverse was a dead giveaway, as was the pin hinge contruction at the top of the reverse.  Enlarging the images from posts #1 & #2, it also looks like a one - piece construction.  It is a well - made reproduction.   However... The 1939 Iron Cross with the maker mark "21" was manufactured by Gebrüder Godet & Co. Specifically, this maker mark is associated with the Iron Cross Second Class 1939.   https://www.treasurebunker.com/forums/index.php?/topic/3091-how-to-tell-if-a-iron-cross-1st-and-2nd-class-is-real-or-fake/  

S.Chriskelly is correct.

I’m not a fan. I don’t think these were made this way.

Not sure if these are of any use   https://stephentaylorhistorian.com/2020/06/19/german-ww2-7-92mm-headstamps-how-to-id-them-manufacturer-list/   https://cartridgecollectors.org/headstamp-codes/  

Thank you all for your replies.   I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what they say and what it means.   Just in the last couple of years I started collecting some WWI - WWII Japanese items, very fascinating stuff! I should have been buying it years ago.
