Title: Can someone tell me anything about this
Post by: Theboarsnest on February 09, 2013, 07:17:30 PM
I picked this up at a garage sale and I'm not sure what it is I asked the lady selling it if she knew anything about it but all she said is that it was her fathers so I have no idea.its in a frame and the back is glued and I don't want to rip it off

This is an Arabian Dagger...see similar image..it can be quite old..or it could have been made yesterday...the design has,nt changed much over the last 2/300 years..but i,d say this one might be early 1900,s....if it has any silver mounts on the scabbard..then value..can be quite high..if otherwise....don,t give up your day job just yet...
