Tom, Great looking mid period Alcoso. Looks like a really nice blade and pleasing grip. The personalization is really something special! Love that Germanic font! Neat to see the very typical trait seen on these type three Alcoso's where the ferrule sticks out a touch proud of the cross guard, looks like this one actually was very slightly dinged where it stuck out..cant tell you how many I have owned and seen like this. Congrats! Kevin.
It's ALL in the DETAILS!!.......

Nice dagger! I should know, I bought it a few years ago from bill Shea , I'm a dentist as well. Funny how these things travel around the country from dealer to collector to collector.

Thanks Guys I thought this dagger was pretty cool - It is interesting some of the travels these artifacts make round the world and back. After all we are all temporary custodians at some point all these artifacts will have new owners

Very beautiful hand engraving. I love when you can see the tooling marks down in the grooves. Very special dagger you have there Tom
