Description

Featuring naturally figured one-piece wood grip vaguely resembling a full-length cloaked
figure of a woman; brass-head tacks on each side. Unusual brass guard with vertically
fluted quillon block and short button finials. Unmarked 6 3/4″ hollow-ground triangular-
section blade (tiny hole, apparently intentional, just below the ricasso).
Overall length 13 1/4″. Unusual one-of-a-kind dagger showing age and dark patina to
wood and metal surfaces.
