Thanks for looking .

I also have had no success on finding anything about the dagger apart from when I bought it .Then it was listed as an Egyptian commando dagger by the German seller.

Glad your out Jerry

Enjoy the comforts of home and get a good rest mate .

Lovely 13 inch transitional mate . Still confused with these number marks like the "1 "on yous and various numbers on other knives I have seen but I do know they are always beautifully built and ar high quality knives . I have 2 knives so marked, a Rostfrei import ,and I have another marked C.Jul . ...

Frenchie94 More great knives . 8) I am really drawn to the 13 inch vendetta corsa you posted with the "Ajaccio" etch and "4 " stamp making it a new one to my eyes .It looks an early one for a vendetta knife .I love these etched knives .

I believe it is an Egyptian commando dagger ,probably from the 60s or 70s but I cant find much about it .
It came complete with bloody sheath and is quite wide for a combat knife ,more like a spear tip .than a dagger .

Heres some better images of it .

Thanks for the explanation on this . Most mother of pearl scales I have had on knives has been on very early examples ,mostly penknives . Chris... love that abalone example you posted ,layered or not it really is a stunning scale material on these knives ,just looks great . Billyfish would have love...
