Unusual WWII Period Air Force dagger. Brass skull with red stone eyes pommel and propeller shaped crossguard. Wire wrapped round white bakelite grip with an affixed crowned “MI” (cypher of King Michael 1927-1930 and 1940-1945). 6 1/2” diamond shaped narrow graying blade. Blue velvet covered scabbard with an oak leaf embellished gilt brass one-ring throat and long tip. (Unsubstantiated story that dagger was presented to a Luftwaffe general who served in Romania.) About condition II.

Thanks for the reply. I thought so myself but wanted some confirmation.
