Advise and help on a Polish pre WW2 dagger

[Mike Huxley]

Gentlemen, can any of you give me any help on, what a friend of mine believes to be a pre WW2 Polish dagger. Unfortunatly I know nothing about these, but I suggested that I seek the help of those that do know.

Can anybody give me any background on this dagger, what arm of the services it came from and what sort of value would it have.

I only have the one picture of it, but if others are needed I'm sure he can supply them for me.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not too familiar with Polish daggers,but I believe that Army,Navy and Air Forces all had daggers that looked similiar.Polish daggers have also been reproduced,however this one has the look of being pre-WW2.On Ebay I've seen Polish daggers go for $300+ to a little under a grand.

Rick, thanks for the information. I was beginning to give up on this one. As I said I'm only trying to get some informed opinions on the piece for a friend. Is there anywhere that I could look up further information on these daggers?

I tried a Google search but didn't find anything really,however I'll keep looking.
