Oh I understand, the collector was old, the friend was old, so the dagger must be old too. May be, but the bajonet M 1916 is old too

Here is your M1916. Are you really sure, that this is the same blade? Roland |

This is not a M/16-LEBEL bajonet! Look at the foto of a Lebel-M/16 and compare

The Lebel has a round base but the base of the dagger is rectangular! The middle ridge of the Lebel is thicker than the dagger and finally the tip is completely different. I am sure, this blade doesn't come from a Lebel or another well known mass produced bayonet. Roland |

the dagger under discusion is a well kknown type of all steel roundel dagger , Germany around 1400.
this type of stabbing dagger is Long, around 40-42 cm. see pictures of the same type based on the Pictures, marks, excecution and extreme length, I tend with dating of this dagger more to a later reproduction, I think i have seen the dagger before but cannot remember where it was. |

Good catch, Jasper!! I agree that it looks much newer. Historismus?
