19th century gothic dagger?
This is my new favourite dagger? What is it?
It is copper, silver plated. I think it may be French (or English), Victoria era. |

Hi Ron
Hi Ron,
Your first thoughts are my first thoughts. I think the blade and perhaps the design to the scabbard may tell more of the period than the rest of the design as the blade is one thing that seemsed to stay common to a time period. Though saying that someone here may well immeadiately identify the the 'eagle','Sphinx','Griffin' hilt? Gav |
