	Doesn't it look like this blade was shortened in both ends ? This judging by the by the fuller, which ends too far into the point and starts too close from the tang ... no ricasso at all. As Jasper suggests, a blade either modified for a plug bayonet or for a dagger ... probably salvaged from a broken sword   .
