Battara,
Thank you again. I didn't think this dagger would be much good for slashing which only leaves stabbing. Even then with this style of tip one would have to be careful not to hit a bone which would be difficult unless ones opponent was completely or almost completely disabled. That is why I brought up the possibility that it might be a form of Misericord dagger. I haven't yet found any information or accounts of Misericords being used by the Katipunans but thought they might have been but just not openly discussed or talked about. Is this the style of sword that would have been used with this dagger? Thanks again or your help.
Robert
