Maybe fake is too strong a word? Maybe the former Soviet original makers are still making them with Soviet markings.
Tom,
that can certainly be the case.
Look at this dagger - it has all correct markings - Soviet Crest, Bulat mark, etc. Except for the date - this one was made in 1992, while the Soviet Union ceased to exist as a state in 1991.
I guess they continuued to make Soviet daggers after the breakup of the USSR.
Best,
New World
