Ah ...so its a Pesh

...choora, Pesh....Pesh, Choora still getting them 'mixed up'
Hi Lew, thanks, a little disappointed ...I thought this was older(late 19th early 20th)...I can only assume (with all the rust) that this knife spent alot of time strapped to a diver's leg

Yours is a fine example.
Kronckew, have to agree with Lew......nice dagger,.......seems I need to make another scabbard. Is it usual to have a decorative item (talisman?) hanging from the 'eyelet' in the pommel area?
