In addition, and to clarify post# 7, herewith pictures of some 15/16th century style characteristics that also can be seen on the dagger under discussion;
a stiff flat diamond shaped blade, flat or hollow grounded faces. a rhombus rectangle on the gripcap or plate in case of a rondel dager, under the peened tang a bulky steel grip a small thumbguard (missing!) a (baluster) shaped ricasso unfortunately length cannot be a criterion, the length of 16th century stilettos can range from around 25cm to just under 50cm allover. best, Last edited by cornelistromp; 7th November 2012 at 09:04 AM. |
