ss dagger

[vitts]

I have been offered this SS dagger for a price of $1500 from a man who came into our local gun show. My question is IS IT WORTH THAT MUCH?

The condition is not that good at all. It can use a good cleaning. there is a chip in the grip on the back side.

Your opinions are greatly appreciated

thank you frank vitale

blade showing mm pretty dirty has not been cleaned at all

I would rather hold for a nicer dagger but is $1500 to good to pass up?

scabbard has a dent and the paint is very worn

It may be the angle of the photos, but it looks like the blade has been shortened. The grip chip, scabbard dent, and overall condition would steer me away from this one at that price.

As Skip said.................. a marginal piece for that price with a blade that has a "Roman Nose"

Im so agree with the others here !

If you spend 1000 Us more of the "Greens" you will be able to find a better one in future am i sure. But its your own choice
