You're an experienced collector, Tony. What is your assessment?

Dave
I have no issues with this piece. Do you have any concerns that you would like me to address? If so, please email me or post here, and I'll be glad to answer any questions.

You can never be too careful these days.

Craig just wanting reassurance I collect these days just Sa and Ss and odd other daggers
the insciption looks low on the blade in the pic you posted
I may bid to buy this dagger but having been burnt in the early 70's by one of the first pot bellied GO's to the tune of $450 I decided to get out before the market collapsed so over 400 TR daggers were sold OK I did Ok but if I had hung in I would be up there with the two Toms Stuart Wilson Fred Stephens etc etc
As it is I have now over the last few years put together a nice collection of minty daggers and perhaps I will add this one who knows

So I welcome Grumpy Pat Galien and Daves Opinions I like it but the position of the inscription just worries me a tad even with Craigs Guarantee
Thanks
Tony

What's to say? You said the inscription is low on the blade. It looks like you are correct from the photo.

PS - why not use your real name now, Tony ?

Thanks Craig appreciate your reply I know you are busy running your business and time is a valuable asset. Like I said the placement of the motto looks a little low off the spine of the blade but it may just be the pics Cheers

Certainly, no problem bringing up questions ... Mike MC is gonna be in my office, and we'll look carefully at it.
By the way, Mike said nothing wrong whatsoever - blade is 100% acceptable.

I have taken out some off-topic posts and a reply that quoted them. Sorry I did not see them sooner.
