I would like to show you the latest addition to my collection of army daggers. A nice slant grip army dagger by E. Pack with a type 2 Pack crossguard. I love the hand enhanced scabbard bands of these early daggers.

John Z your right! Oh my that is a great dagger. These early packs are not easy to find and not all of them have the wonderful hand worked pattern scabbard bands like this one.

A very beautiful dagger indeed! It took me years to get one!

Absolutely first rate piece. I know this is in Tom's league. Wonderful. I thought you were a Navy guy or have you succumbed to the lure of early Armies like I did while looking for my next Navy?
As always, you manage to find top quality pieces that are the envy of the rest of us. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers and regards,

Thanks for the kind comments. They are much appreciated. As Rick said I started out as a navy guy but while looking for another navy and enjoying Tom's posts of his great armies I got more and more attracted to early army daggers. I just love the handwork on these pieces and I think the slant grips are beautiful. I haven't lost interest in navies. I've just added a second type of dagger to hunt for  Danny

Great early Pack for sure! I would love to add one like this to my collection. The hand work and fantastic blade really make it, like this style of Guard too! Congrats!! Kevin.
It's ALL in the DETAILS!!.......
