Love these Emil Voos daggers alot..I suppose because of desirability they will still seem to hold most of their value based on condition.
The resoldered blade is a bit of a detriment but for the collector who never had a Voos example would look the other way and concentrate on the type of dagger..the producer and the one of a kind panel etch.
Just my thoughts

Is that actually a ivory grip?

Many thanks for your help....i know that for dagger collectors the blade is everything...would you take it in your collection or pass?
Big question ahaha
I would pass on this one due to the damage.

A shame about the blade, as the rest of the piece looks excellent. Ivory grip,beautiful engraving on the blade, details to the guard,etc. But for me, I, too, would have to say that I would not want it. The welded blade makes it highly unlikely to ever gain much value and for most blade collectors that I know-including myself-the repair is a deal breaker.
