European dagger with chiseled steel hilt and grip, Germanic style, of late 16th to mid 17th century. Blade measures approx. 9”, 13-3/4” overall. Blade measures approx. 3/4 across the ricasso. The blade shows some cleaning long ago and some minor" erosion and pinprick pitting. The hilt is very nicely forged and formed with piercing on the grip and is not a cast 19th century copy in our opinion. The hilt is very crisp and shows some darkened aging but generally good overall. The pommel nut shows no evidence of removal and the blade appears genuine to the hilt. A very high quality dagger that appears to be a genuine period piece. Est: $3,500 - $7,000
