Hi Khaled,
Thank you very much for your warm words and your further comments, highly appreciated! I really like my four examples, I think that three ones are antique and the one which started this thread is old to vintage.
And yes, the fourth example has a beveled edge for the full length on the front side and a small groove near the edge on the back side. (first two pics) The blade is very massive and shows some cross markings on the spine. (next two pics)
And you are also correct that they all have not a full tang. (next pics)
I await your pm for the link of the dagger which is for sale.
Kind regards,
Detlef
