    Hi guys have been offered this dagger. To me it looks good in every respect. With one small issue. And which dealer has been straight up about. Someone has drilled a small hole in the back which is threaded. He believes it was done to prevent dagger being drawn as it must of been displayed. Is wanting 2700 US for it. Will still display great from the front. I dont like the holes though. Appreciate your thoughts thanks.

    Other than the ridiculous drilled holes ..Not my area of strength but I see no issues with it ..appears to be a late model.
    Other thoughts welcome.

    Thanks Larry. It is a real shame those holes. Not sure I will be able to look past them. Just knowing they are there is one of those things that will bug me!

    Your thinking out loud is not so bad!
    The price is way to high, a known sponsor here has a few in de 2K range without the holes, they would surely annoy me in time.
    I most say this would not be one for me.
    The holes have a serious effect on its value, imo its now more like 50% of a normal one.
    besides that its a bit strange that it misses the typical lines on the scabbard fittings.
    The blades seems to have no crossgrain at all, not a good sign either.
    I would say that there are plenty out there without the issues this one has for a way better price.

    I completely agree with Ger. The drilled holes are a major devaluing feature. A dealer should understand that, many potential buyers would be put off.
