Georgian naval dagger?
This one just ended on e-bay.
The owner was told that it is a regulation dagger of thr Georgian Navy. I was very unsure about it. The owner asked me to post it here for your comments. The link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 |
We need a pic or link, Ariel.

Andrew,
Many thnks! |
So it's N87 from the year 1992... I've never seen georgian navy dirks before, but what bothers me is that there is a lot of work done on this one (number, year, leaves), but there is no georgian symbolics - there is no star, there is no Zhvania's three-colored flag, or more modern nationalistic templar's crosses. I don't see any naval symbolics either - no anchors, no ships etc.
Plus I don't really think that issuing new dirks was a great priority for the small georgian navy in 1992 - civil wars, mixed with genocide and occupation that followed, I don't see it's happening in 1992-1997. |
My concerns exactly...
Nevertheless, it looks like an excellent dagger with a lot of effort invested into it. Any thoughts on it's origin? |
