Greek Translation Requested
Hi All,
I recently got this little knife and can read the 1913 but the rest is Greek to me (I couldn’t resist). Can anyone give me a translation? The blade is 6” (15.24 cm) long. The hilt scales appear to be dyed bone. No Sheath. Sincerely, RobT |

You Gotta Be Kiddin' Me
Well, given the thin blade (about 1/16" [1.57 mm] thick just before the bolster), I was pretty sure it wasn't a fighting blade but I didn't expect so much love. On the other hand, I'd bet that, if the woman's father or significant other suspected who the blade's owner was writing about, there would have been a fight. Thank you for the translation Sylektis. I certainly didn't expect anything like it.
