Figural Dagger - Esmeralda?

[spiral]

Yes its a lovely piece Bill, It was a pleasure to own.

I agree Katanas pics of Esmereldas necklace eventualy clinched it for me.

I was probably just bieng a stubbern mule for the point of debate having dug myself such a hole!

I Still find it interesting the its the only upside down scabbard Ive seen on these cast bronze knives. {yes Ive heard the arguments! But factualy its still the only one seen so far.} And so its still an upside down church though!

From the images I found of the spire at the time, this scabard roof seemed to be tiled in a very different manner, But perhaps someone can find other images.}



The spire is still there it looks like?



Dont know if its been rebuilt?
