French Napoleonic Navy Scottish RN Officers Dirk Dagger. The blade length is almost 16 inches. The handle has no flaws and is in perfect condition. The guard has a scottish thistle instead of an anchor on it. Nice gilt on the guard and pomel. The blade has etching but because of the darking of the blade it is harder to make out exactly what it says. No maker marks that I can find.
