A funny story from Timonium

While walking through the isles at Timonium I spotted a cute little dagger with a 5-6 inch blade. It was a simple yet elegant knife. I asked the seller to see it and he happily removed it from the glass case on his table. It had a tiny price sticker on it which I thought read $380 it turned out I was a bit off it was really $3800

. I asked the seller if he could give me some back ground on this little gem he had such as age or country of origin? His reply was "It's just a real nice dagger that's all I know" It really amazes me that are so many dealers out there who just haven't got a clue
