Sold/Spanish Puntilla Bull Fighting Double Edged Dagger

[Hal Golightly]

Up for sale and you don’t see one of these very often, is a bull fighting double edge dagger called a Spanish Puntilla, these knives are used to administer the coup de grâce to bull that is already down. It is driven into the base of the bulls skull at the end of the fight. I found and purchased it 28 years ago at a yard sale in Santa Barbara, California, so I really don’t know how old it is, the only mark I can find on the blade is the word “TOLEDO” so I'm guessing it was made in Toledo Spain. Blade edge is not sharpened and it fits tight in to the brown ribbed wood handle, no wiggle. No sheath or box. $40.00 shipped USPS, Ships to USA only, I accept Paypal and USPS Money Orders. Thanks for looking. Sold
