OK will do so but will try to clean up the spots first. Will pick up some pineapple juice at the supermarket today.
As you can imagine, other things have taken precedence lately.

the larger one has good quality silver work on it unlike some that I see on ebay with porr tinny looking metal. The smaller one is nice but the blade can use a cleaning.

I have had the silver hilted one for quite some time, and "Yes" the silver is very good quality by the looks of it.
Attached is a better pic showing the fullers, after some initial cleaning, and it just COULD be worth etching when I get some time, as there appears to be a hint of lamination showing.
Lew, have you ever seen this style of dagger with a back knife? Any I have seen have always been the J shape.
Regards Stu
