Thank you Jim and Akanthus!
Interesting thought that the blade could have been once much longer Jim! That would mean that it was once a so-called Hirschfaenger?
Thank you for giving an approximate age of the dagger Akanthus, great information, thank you very much. And yes, by such an age the blade form will look different now to how it may have looked once. Would be great to see similar examples of hunting daggers of this age.
Great thoughts and information gents, very appreciated!
