This was in a collection of WW2 daggers I bought. I know it's not a military dagger but thought someone may have some knowledge on it. It has very nice detail to the casting. The handle is solid and I think it's plated brass or white brass. Nice leather covered scabbard. With the lady holding a dagger pointed down ,2 cupids and a boy and girl kissing. No makers mark. I thought maybe a post WW1 celebration dagger possibly. It is very well made and I think it's old. Thanks for any thoughts on it.

Hi,
Never seen anything quite like this piece before, but it appears to be finely made and the details are stunning. The fit at the scabbard throat looks perfect, too. Perhaps it was made for a religious or fraternal organization, like the Knights of Columbus or the Knights Templar? Just some thoughts, though I hope someone out there can provide more info on an excellent dagger.

Thanks Br.James. It is a very well made dagger with greater detail than the pictures show. I believe it is older than WW2. I was hoping also someone knew the country of origin,type dagger,etc.Comment
