Faca de Ponta

[Hombre]

I just bought this Faca de Ponta, I just couldn´t resist it so now I am just waiting for it to arrive so I can hold it in my hand....
I blame Sajen for it.... :D :D After seeing his fantastic collection of Faca de Ponta I also wanted at least a couple....
Here are the sellers pictures of it....

Lovely !

Silver( sheated ) hilt ?

I agree, truly stunning. But I ask, is this really a Faca de Ponta? All other examples I have seen have been single edged.

Most probably german silver!

Hi Stefan,
