Post a thread HERE, I would suggest having a picture of it and as much of a description as possible.

Best of luck!

PS: The best "real world" appraisal you can get would be to post it on eBay with a super high reserve (something that would pretty much assure it would not sell). When the auction ends add about 20-25% and that should give you a rough "street value"

and if it does sell while doing that, you didn't get enough money ! Can we see some pics in the Bernard Levine forum?

well, the thing is, i've no idea exactly how old or what the origins are, it's been in the family a while. i would like to know exactly what is up with it. kinda like a medieval table dagger, but the blade is really wide and has a HUGE blood groove.w/a wood$ leather sheath, obviously handmade, but good.
