Hello Mikee,
I am asked by jcwater to reply on his behalf. Myself is a bayonet & military knives collector.
I beleived that you are using a translator, thank you so much for the effort.
The dagger that you shown does not look like Chinese, not so for the 'characters' either. But I have no idea where it is from. From my experience I would say that it is not from South East Asia (Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia) too. Maybe Baltic area, or West Asia (Turkey and its neighborhood) ?
With best regards,
Keith
