Dagger with Sheath

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Dagger with Sheath by an unknown artist. The dagger has a long, thin blade with a pointed tip and a straight edge. The blade is dark in color, likely metal, with visible signs of wear and aging. The handle is made of a light-colored material, possibly wood or bone, with a rounded top and a narrow, cylindrical shape. The sheath is long and thin, matching the shape of the blade, with a dark-colored, possibly metal, exterior. The sheath features intricate engravings or etchings along its length. The background of the image is a plain white surface.
