SA Daggaer for review PLEASE
Hi All, The SA Dagger for your review and comments came my way some weeks ago. Lord knows where it has resided in the years of its life but it has suffered from an accute lack of TLC. As will be seen from the debris found within the grip and on the tang, sseperating them was no mean fete and I would suggest that the dagger has not been taken appart for very many years so I am happy that it all belongs together. I have a theory on the blade which I will not go into until I have some responses as I do not want prejudge the blade.
Can anyone suggest any appropriate solution to the finger acid damage on the blade?
