Being a dagger man I am completely out of my depth on these. At the moment these are the only pictures I have to go on so apologies in advance.

No expert here, till better advise comes along. The Oakleaves w. Swds. do not match what I have observed in books for a Godet 900 21 marked set 1st or 2nd type.

No expert either but the quality just isn't there for a Godet piece, as for the KC, I do not like that one either, the ring attachment looks a but crude and the 1813 date seems awfully thin. Let's see what others with more expertise have to say but these are my from the hip thoughts.

Thanks guys, I have checked Mr Williamsons book but it unfortunately does not go into too much detail regarding Godet. I know there was 2 different types, this being the later but thats about the limit of my knowledge.
I appreciate the opinions. I also read somewhere that the 800 marking on the KC is normally always centred, is that true?.
Regards
