dagger; dagger sheath

The blade of the dagger is narrow and pointed, like a triangle, and double-edged. Rust spots are visible. It is held by a short wooden handle that tapers towards the back and ends in a knob. This handle has a multi-cornered shape. At its narrowest point, a thread is wrapped around it several times. The sheath is made of wood and shaped to fit the blade so that it can be slipped over it. There is an elongated hole in the wood on one side. A small round protrusion develops at the tip.
