Default Interesting Dirk

I got this magpie fashion. Not my sort of thing but I fell for the clean lines. At first glance it appears to be a converted bayonet. However I am not so sure. The scabbard has been made for the blade and seems to my eye to be different to the Martini bayonet scabbard I do not know? It is certainly not shed work, made by a professional hand? The handle is turned black wood a kind of ebony. The blade is 27cm long. It is not unheard of to see bayonet type knife blades. You can only stab with it. Dagger nuts oppinions?
