The cadet daggers were much smaller. This dagger I think is rather Yugoslavian then Romanian. I will post some photos as an argument for that. Regards.

It appears that the brass parts on the dagger has more copper in the metal mixture creating a pinkish look and the scabbard is more of a yellow gold brass color. Also, one needs to see if the dagger is a tight fit to the scabbard or if it is a loose fit. An incorrectly fitting scabbard would suggest that it has been replaced. I also noticed that the size of the guard where it butts up to the scabbard are of different measurements also suggesting a replacement scabbard. [SIZE=7]SORRY BOON.
