Small Philippine Dagger
My latest, a small "Spanish Colonial"? Philippine dagger.
Total length 11-1/2 inches Hilt length 4-7/8 inches Blade length 6-5/8 inches Blade at thickest 5/16 inch Blade at widest 1-1/4 inches All fittings are brass. The grip is horn with a spiral groove cut into it that is lined with a channel shaped brass strip. By the way the channel is secured into the groove at each end ( by a small nail) I also believe there might have been a twisted wire set into the channel at one time that is now missing. As usual, all comments on this piece are welcome. Robert Last edited by Robert Coleman; 5th October 2005 at 10:22 PM. |
