Jut kiddin', and not really. I'm a working guy just like all of us, with a love for objets d'art disguised as weapons.
And it's all a matter of taste, some may choose dinners at IHOP over Morton's, and with arguably good reasons.   BTW: Very nice posts, Michael. Keep up the good work! Best regards Manuel Quote:

Muchas Gracias Gonzalo,
I must commend your excellent taste, they are indeed muy bonitas. OTOH, they are very dangerous, I hope nobody paid the ultimate price after meeting these femmes fatales. Their blades are most wicked. Will do as you request. In the meanwhile, check these pics. Best if you use the slideshow feature. http://s353.photobucket.com/albums/r...pean%20Dagger/ http://s353.photobucket.com/albums/r...multifullered/ |

Matchlock, i am confused by the Peter Finer tag on all these daggers. Are they currently for sale or up for auction?

Upper is 11.3 oz in wt., almost 16.5" long, and with a 12" blade.
Lower is 6.1 oz. in wt., 13" long, and with a 8.3" blade Sorry it took this long, but I had them stored in their display. Best M Quote:
