I agree Luzon, perhaps even Ilokano, but very recent, certainly post WWII (note the thin aluminum spacers).

Hi there.
I have some pictures of a dagger of very similar design here. I acquired it from a person who said it of middle-eastern origin, though I'm not sure if that is a fact or a guess. Here is my number Number 5 ![]() I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this reply ![]() |

I think this one could be Indian, I have seen similar stamped "India", or "made in India".

As i stated before, i have a blade almost exactly like this and i am still wiling to bet it is from the Philippines. The sheath is horn like the handle on the front side and wood on the other side with the same aluminum stud designs on the front face. A very low rent dagger that i spent less than the price of a dinner on, but it is big, awesome sharp and dangerous. ![]() |

It's a nice and cheap little dagger, not the best looking scabbard for it though but I really like the blade.
If these pictures don't work them I don't know what will ![]() |
