Dagger for ID ... and comments
Half way to a stiletto, may i say ...
Acquired in Portugal, traced as from a mannor house. A friar once lived there; could he have brought from distant places ? ... Or is it actually Portuguese ? The blade with an atypical cross section; flat in the 'bottom' face, plain in one half ridged face and concave on the other half. The sccabard, i am not sure if it was born for it. Total length 28 cms. Weight 375 grams. Whay do you guys make of this piece ? Thnks in advance. . |
