Thank you for your feedback.
This detail is indeed interesting. Perhaps to forge there the ring that is generally seen on the daggers of the 17th... It is as if the work had not been finished..

A rudimentary side 'Nagel' or mini-shell.

It seems much more likely that you would catch and manipulate the opponent's blade between your blade and those forward curved quillons than that you would attempt that with those tiny unfortunately placed notches and risk your fingers.
