Hi All,

I second francantolin's thank you. It is interesting to see that these daggers come in at least two cross sections. One is an unfullered flattened diamond type (as are all of mine) and another has a fuller (or fullers). The profiles differ also. One type has an uninterrupted distal taper from hilt to point and another has basically parallel sides giving way to an abrupt taper to point.

Sincerely,
RobT
