gregM Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Here is a Chinese dagger that I was given as a birthday gift back in the '70s. All Iknow about it is that it came from a antique store in Seatle. It is not military but itdoes appear to be old and is very ornate.Has anyone seen anything like this one?

Hauptmann Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 the headHi Greg,Very nice piece! And I especially love your last pic... just the right amount of light and shadow and it looks as if a dragon is rising up from the depths to wreak havoc... right out of one of the old Japanese monster movies. A very nice composition. And love the inlays as well. Thanks so much for sharing this one. Even though not military it's definitely very interesting.
