Yes, you are correct.. I collected Navy daggers years ago.
I have known for quite awhile that this was common practice to do this...... The Alcoso (Alexander Coppel) firm made some of the best presentation items out there...
They made many post 1918 Imperial style Navy daggers and presentation Imperial Navy daggers.. Matter of fact many are in current reference books..
The link below shows one great dagger made by Alexander Coppel..
