Hi Carlos,

Since nobody else comments on your two very nice daggers I'll give it a try on the one with the ivory handle. My feeling is that it is a middle 19th century French gamblers or garder dagger, but it's just my feeling. When you ever want to part with them.....
PS: I would polish up the scabbard from the curved bladed one.

Regards,
Detlef
