Title
A complete cast copper-alloy Medieval Dagger Guard.
Description
English: A complete cast copper-alloy Medieval Dagger Guard. The central block is sub-rectangular with a rectangular slot for the tang of the dagger. The guard terminates on each end with a sub-rectangular drooped quillion. On one face of the block is an integral semi-circular projection. The object would have been mounted on a dagger in between the blade and the handle, helping to protect the hand from a blow and also preventing it slipping down the blade. A similar example which can be found on the database is NLM-06E920.
