Again, thank you so very much, Chris!

I must admit that first I thought ELMO was not a company but just a sign what material it was in the blade.... ELMO INOX....

Well, it will be an interesting topic to to try research....

Best,
Stefan

INOX is shorthand for acero inoxidable which means stainless steel in Spanish.

Hi

ELMO in Portuguese, means YELMO, and denotes that it is the brand of the dagger and that stainless is used for the blade.

Hi

I forgot to say that here the figure of a YELMO is used to imitate some of the white weapons produced by Weyesberg, which in Castilian had the figure of a YELMO (helmet). and the word CASCO
