Hi

Not my field at all, but I thought I would comment since no one else has. The blade form and profile is certainly reminiscent of Scottish dirks, and the handle a bit like that to be found on earlier ballock daggers. The blade seems in good condition. What is that material stuck to the metal in front of the wood - has the hilt pulled back a bit ?

Whatever, a nice piece and I hope someone more knowledgeable can give their views.
