Dagger for ID ... and comments

Cool stylette, look a bit italian/mediterranean, bit rough corrosion, may hide markings. the brass wrap on the base of the blade is interesting. It's interesting what gets found in old attics. (see my other post of today I am posting in a few minutes.)

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Western Saharan or close. it doesn,t seem that far from one of those Tuareg, Mauratanian, Senegalese daggers.
