Hi Zelbone, yes this was the one that was sold in aldevinco. The one you met was not the owner of this dagger. It was only consigned to him. How much did they quote you for this piece?

Very nice Moro dagger for comment!!!

Hi I have a dagger here, I was wondering why the metal bands on the scabbard had bubbled? And is the metal band on the hilt a swaasa band? Thanks.
