today I felt lucky and happy!
Bought a dagger with a bone as handle on the internet...
description : "trench art 1916"
no scabbard... perhaps it never had one at all
although the blade was quite dirty...
and the bone as well...
and my Bouvier the Flandres not with me anymore for some years...(passed away after 13 years)
so no danger for the handle "disappearing"...
the lettering of 1916...although difficult to read
made me think...
and I placed a bid and got it !
Today it arrived...
some virgin olive oil did do the job...
and indeed: what I suspected came through or became true !
a Tjikeroeh
perhaps not the fanciest but still one of my "treasured"ones.

Your thoughts please...
