The arm dagger
The arm dagger that you show has the same type of scabbard drag as the one in Flavio's thread of June 7 (Sudanese Dagger for Comment). The blade and hilt shapes however are very different. I also have a number of pieces with this same type of drag and widely varient hilt and blade styles (one isn't even an arm dagger). Does anyone know why this one feature should be found on so many different hilt and blade types?
Sincerely, RobT |
