Hello All!
After a long rest from collecting due to personal reasons I'm back. This is yet another "Deer Handle Knives " that I enjoy rehilting. I replace the deer foot in the pictures with the nice stag handle and German Silver pommel, what do you think? The crossguard is steel and the chape is also German Silver(The chape is origenal to the knife but the pommel is not). On the blade is written "A.W. Wadsworth &.Son Austria". The dagger is about 10 1/2" overall with a 5 3/4" blade4 1/2" handle w/ crossguard and chape. The curved crossguard is about 3" long. But what I want to know is how old is it? Is it pre-WWII(1918-1938) or post-WWII(1950's-1960's) or (1970's-1980's). I know the last one is splitting hairs but what I'm mainly concerned about is Pre or Post. Any comments are welcome, thanks!
