For some reason all the posts about these are on this Ethnographic page, even though they are French/Italian in origin. Browsing one of my regular online retail sites this piece came up at the right price, so I bought it, and it arrived a couple of days later. It has damage but the price reflected that so I am happy enough. Most of the pics are ones posted by the vendor, being better than what I take, and the last two are mine.

Hello David,
It's an Corsican Vendetta dagger. Sadly it's missing the end cap at the handle, most probably from german silver. End 19th century. How long is it? Attached are my three examples. Regards, Detlef Last edited by Sajen; 10th February 2022 at 06:03 PM. |

They remind me very much of the "Sam Bell" dirks in the US. |
