I am aware that the pictures are of different daggers. I was trying to illustrate that knives and knife dimensions do not follow a strict rule book and would vary according to the competance of the many manufacturers and wealth of thier customers. Even in Elgoods book which is only highlighting some of the best production the variation of similar fullered knives is a good many. With these weapons to assume one type is the law is a little simplistic. We are not talking bayonets for a 303. Tim
