Sudan, stiletto, T section

This dagger has been made from the top section of the type of bayonet that you post. There is a metal tube that makes the basis for the grip. I can not tell if that is also part of the original bayonet. The tube is filled with a hard black substance formed to a dome at the end of the handle. It appears that some kind of tang has been peened over on top of the dome. I will investigate further tomorrow.
