Ear Dagger
This is a rare and particularly fine example of an ear
dagger, so called because it's pommel resembles an ear. The pommel
has two splayed discs to hook the thumb and allow for a more
forceful downward thrust. It was a weapon that was particularly
favoured by royalty and other memebrs of the aristocracy.
