$355.00

Vintage / antique dagger knife - in \"as found\" uncleaned condition. NEAT vintage UNITED STATES Naval Dirk from the era of the War of 1812. 8 11/16 inches overall length with a 5 inch blade. Silver fittings - handle looks to be checkered ox bone - the blade is etched. One side is floral etched - the other with some words. It is hard to make out - but we believe that it says: \"If you run foul of me / you run foul of a snag\". Both silver handle fittings wiggle - and need to be tightened - the handle also seems to have a slight bend. The guard is bend in a couple spots. We do NOT have the scabbard for this one.
