Main Gauche or Misercorde Dagger
Holiday greetings to all! I picked this interesting old dagger in a trade to day and it's well beyond my collecting field. I found what I think is similar examples in Stone's A Glossary... but I'm just guessing and trying to match my trade to very old drawings. May I ask the Forum what their thoughts are?
Sincerely, Greg |

Thanks Fernando, does this speak to any particular country? Age wise, 1550?

I can add no knowledge to this thread but just to echo Fernando's comments that you have a beautiful acquisition there and a real stand out piece. One I am sure many of us would love to have in our collections,
Well done you Regards Ken |
