yes i believe the tip has been re shaped after damage ,,its to round and blunt
it should be a very sharp point , but that makes no diference to what it is ,it a wonderfull dagger be proud of it ,cheers ian
cheers for the comments ian, who knows when it was done, thats me just clicking on to what you were meaning a few posts back yes i would agree it looks worn down and as you say in its hay day it would have had a needle sharp point
oh and theres no file or sharpning marks up the blade edges and this things still really sharp a well made piece of kit that will out last us!
cheers again for the comments

your welcome my friend , enjoy your dagger cheers ian
No.9 Army Commando were formed from troops under the command of the Scottish District. Google No.9 Commando and you will find a wealth of information.With regards to blade length they varied from 7inches to 6.5. I agree with the others that your knife appears to have the point re shaped after damage. Having said that it is a super knife. John.
That is a beautiful dagger. You should be very proud of that indeed.
By the way, crash me a fag will you. I'm gasping for one.
