Roy[al] Aus[tralian] Regiment (RAR) and Royal Australian Infantry Corps (RAInf) are two different things.
As a member of the former I was issued and wore collar badges that were identical to the Regimental 'skippy' hat badge, just smaller.
RAInf may wear the dagger in wreath collar badge - we were never issued collars on marching out of Kapooka although we wore the RAInf hat badge until after IET.
Royal Victoria Regiment (RVR) did wear the dagger in wreath collar in my day, I'm not aware that any of the other ARes infantry regiments did so.
My point is - the dagger and wreath collar badge was NOT worn by RAR as bobanodised has stated.
