Hi DW,I have a nice Italian site bookmarked at home that has rondel daggers of the era that are both nice, and reasonably priced. I'll post the bokmark when I get home. -------------------- Bob R.

Hi D.W.,Here is a link to he Italian company. The knife bladed rondels are probably on the order of what you are looking for (the kidney dagger is mid 15th century, and the awl bladed ones are less convincing.) http://www.fortebraccio.net/ "Pugnali Medivali" are what you are looking for, and check out the decorative detailing on the rondels themselves. -------------------- Bob R.

Hi, at the beginning of the XV° century italian militiaman uses a dagger called "Basilardo" (Baselard?) and, sometimes, the "pugnale a rondelle" (rondel dagger)the "pugnale a rognoni" (bullock dagger) seems to be an english dagger...not so common in italy.
