Corsican Stylus dagger, also popularly known as "Vendetta Dagger."

20th century with pewter ferrules, I would guess.

Hi Stefan,

Yes, a Corsican Vendetta dagger, around 1900s, late 19th to early 20th century.

I own three Corsican daggers, one is very similar to yours. See the first three examples. the other pictures are from the net I saved long ago.

Nice catch! They are addictive, be careful!

Regards,
Detlef

Like said, late 19th to early 20th century, the fittings are from German silver, brass or white brass.
