Rare dague suisse de la première moitié du XVe siècle. A rare Swiss dagger, first half of the 15th century. In excavated condition, with tapering double-edged blade of flattened diamond section, small bronze boat-shaped crosspiece, with fluted lower edge and short points curved towards the pommel, the pommel slightly smaller and coming to blunt points at the ends, original wooden grip, and the crosspiece and the pommel each fitted to the grip over an angular brass fillet. L.: 31.5 cm. A quantity of daggers of similar type is preserved in the Landesmuseum, Zurich; the present example would appear to be in a better state of preservation than most of these.
