  • Description:

    An excellent example of a 19th century British navy curved blade dirk.  This example shows a checkered ivory grip with a lions head showing remnants of original gold flashing.  The curved blade is 16" long and shows remnants of gold and blue finish.  The blade rides in it's leather scabbard.  The fittings are gilded brass and the leather remains in sound condition.  Missing from this piece is the grip chainlet.  This piece was not an issue item.  It would have been a private purchase by a senior naval officer.  Not an easy piece to find in today's market.
