Old hunting dagger
 
2 Attachment(s)
Good evening all,
I will soon receive this old hunting dagger,
large model , 47cm long
Sadly one side of the antler hilt is broken.
What do you think about age and origin ?

For the seller 100 years old.
Maybe more ??

Thank's in advance for your reply

A photo of the back edge from the butt of the handle to the point of the blade would be helpful.

Some of the information here may be of help to you. The tapered blade and tang at cues for me. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=28072
