Parrying Dagger Makers Mark

der neue Stockel is about marks found on firearms, not on edged weapons.

I would recommend "1000 marks of European Blademakers"by Zygmunt S. lenkiewicz.

the city of toledo hallmark , because that's the OT mark, was often used in combination with another mark of one particular swordsmith.
because the Hallmarkstamp quickly weared, there are (at least)four different versions known of this OT mark.

beautiful dagger with a shell as parry plate, pommel and guard ends would be a very good match/dagger for a naval officer at the beginning of the 17th century.

SANT VACO INTSCONFISIC tells me Unfortunately nothing yet.

best,
