Hi gents, Do you when aproximately this dagger was produced? All parts are made from "German silver" or alpaca (copper alloy with nickel and zink). Linder has a similar dagger currently in production: Forester dagger But I’m unable to find this exact dagger anywhere. Thanks in advance, Alex

Just guessing, but the pommel and crossguard look identical to the new model Bulgarian Daggers being produced.

Thank you gentlemen. I agree, it does look like Bulgarian army dagger with Kriegsmarine blade. While I was looking for any reference to this dagger on the web I've found this page with all modern Bulgarian gadders: DAGGERS

This is really nice dagger, but 100% fantasy. Note here http://www.shopbulgaria.com/edged-weapon...rious-case.htmlThis is contemporary model of Bulgarian Labour corps dagger, that exists since 1938. Half of the crossguard is lionhead. Here we have crossguard with two symmetrical lionheds. Nice work. But it not exists.
