CharlesS I agree with you.I believe too that this kind of dagger style imitate the WWI military dagger.There are few of examples of these 17th c daggers that exist at museums and personal collections.I have seen some of them with exceptional wootz blades and some with just plain steel.This style was in fashion from the start of17th until the end of 18th century.
