It seems strange to me that all of the of his stuff has the exact type of patina and degree of errosion? If these daggers are so rare how does one find so many of them? I have old iron arrow heads from that period in time and the rust or errosion is different. Also the spines on those blades look quite thick one would think if they were buried for 700 yrs there would be more damage? Also I don't recall a ring hilted dagger being made in Europe plus the hilt seems quite long people had small hands back then.
