Very nice 19th Century French Lock Back Folding Dagger Dage De Vertu. This French tiny folding dirk is a very nice exemplar of the knives known as Dague de Vertu. Tiny knives were used by working ladies, concealed in their garter to defend from clients, stubborn or drunk.

This very nice folding knife / dirk features a carbon steel single edged lock back blade. Which remains in nice condition with some light staining and pitting due to age. But still in full profile with no scratches, nicks or damage. It is topped with wonderfully preserved grips fastened with steel pins and over brass liners. The chased steel guard is clean and tight, back spring and spine of the blade with a nice twisted motif design.

The handle is in perfect condition with no chips or cracks. The dagger is nearly 12 cm long when folded and 22 cm long in fully extended position. TO OUR VALUED OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS.
