Can any one identify and tell the story behind this dagger and the message engraved on it?

Okay, WW2 german dress dagger.

This is a Holbien Dagger style, named after a curator's find of an ancient Roman Dagger.

Alles fur Duetschland = "Everything for Germany"

mein ehre heist Treue = "My honor is true" or "My Honor is Loyalty"

Blut und Ehre - " Blood and Honor"

color coding of the knives refer to the "Brownshirts" or "SA" or the SS or Black shirts.

The market is flooded with replicas and forgeries.

German dagger, I think it's a fake but I'm no expert.
