I believe the majority of all the I type disk hilted daggers can be dated between 1350-1450.
cf Seitz blankwaffen p 201 Dagger 3. 1350-1400
cf Jan Piet Puype Harm Stevens A&A of knights and landknechts p172/173 no45, the disk of this dagger has a 90 degree bent guard plate with lobed borders, facts such as the Lek dagger. see pictures attached 1400-1450
cf Scheider&StuberGrifwaffen 1 ill.no 415-432
cf Wegeli Inventar der waffensammlung.. Museum in Bern p286 dagger 1091.
cf Robert Wilkinson Antique weapons and armour p 140 rondel dagger 2 1440-1450, this one has a similar washer as the phil dagger placed at the grip,can this shape be a crossflower? see pictures
best,
