What & from Where?
I was not quite sure where I should put this little dagger.
Is it European or is it something from the East? Does anybody know what it is? Edit as requested Overall length 10" (253mm.) blade length 6" (152mm.) Last edited by A. G. Maisey; 30th September 2017 at 10:25 AM. |

Never seen anything like this. However, maybe giving some dimmensions might help. |

No, definitely not. The hilt is heavier than the blade.
Incidentally, it is fine mechanical damascus. |

I have never seen anything quite like this before . but to me it looks like something from the Arts & Craft movement of the 1890s
