Hey, I have been browsing this forum looking at certain daggers and items, and I seen a few posts which talk about how to spot a fake and some daggers which have flaws which expose them as not being authentic, and this makes me wonder, why?

These daggers are from almost 100 years ago at this stage, blacksmithing and weapon creation has come a long way since then, for example;

http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/272157…-1/s-l1000.jpg - A sword from a video game, this sword did not exist in real life, yet they were able to create it, when it has much higher detail, than for example; an SS chained dagger.

with this in mind, why couldn’t someone just completely recreate an SS dagger without any flaws? are they lazy? they see it as unethical? they don’t have access to the original materials used in the forging?

I just don’t understand why.

Thanks
