You may well be right. I forgot to mention. If you look very close at the handle, you can see that the handle is secured by two screws one either side. One further up the handle from the other. I have been checking bayonets, and the fullers run from tip to forte. The fullers on this dagger end a good inch before the forte. I think you are correct about ww1 private purchase, officer sort of thing. Many daggers knives and dirks were made for ww1. Though how many were actually used is another question. Sadley I will be unable too show but through x10 loop the screws look hand made. Thank you.
