Hello guys,
I am very glad to show you my new addition, an army dagger by WKC with portepee and hanger. Crossguard WKC-3. Nice condition, patina and a killer blade. I hope you like it. You opinions are welcome.
Best regards, Oleg.

Oleg, I have placed an absentee bid on this dagger, but unfortunatelly somebody bidded me out. Somebody.... Hmmm. So that was you.  Congratulation, it is a real beauty. And fortunately it found a great new home in your collection. Congrats again! I really like this rare WKC crossguard. Janos

Very nice an early army dagger,but the crossguard is a WKC-2 in my opinion.
Regards,
Jori

Oleg Nice dagger ! With the recent discovery of the WKC 1.5 crossguard some people have reclassified the guards - Personally I still call this a Type-2 so WKC has a Type-1 Type-1.5 Type-2 Type-3 I figure it’s like plants or fossils or whatever - The guy that discovers it gets to name it !
