Dagger ID & Verification Requested

Patterson25,

As Ian said, a nice Anglo-Indian knife. Most of the ones of this type that I have seen have curved blades like the example shown below. I don’t know if they were made for those who travel per se. Every one I have seen is well made. I think they were made for upper echelon members of the British Raj. I am hoping that the dagger I presented to start this thread is another such example, just made at the very end of the British Raj.

Sincerely,
RobT
