Hi Lew and Tim,
thanks for the info. Lew your's definately has similar features, but yours also seems to have more age

I began to think that mine maybe circa WW2 (blade profile very similar to the Fairbairn Skykes commando dagger) but your seems very similar in dimensions.

so now I am not so sure....I still think early 20th C . Could yours be mid=late 19th C ?
