Arms & Armour
96A French bayonet dated 1873. (27in) - : £30-40 (Arms & Armour)
279A German style Nazi dagger with leather sheath, metal mounts with oak leaves. (14.75in) - : £50-80 (Arms & Armour)
335A flintlock pistol. (14in) - This looks to be Eastern with an 8in steel barrel. It has foliate engraving to the barrel with traces of paintwork. The hardwood body is decorated with nailing in cross hatched decoration. The lock is foliate engraved and both the hammer and powder cover are sprung. There is a rod slung beneath the barrel, the tapering muzzle and the trigger guard are embossed with stylised winged motifs – possibly a bird. It has a brass terminal similarly embossed with stylised motifs and other inset brass decoration to the stock. : £80-120 (Arms & Armour)
487A carved Eastern kris dagger. (20.5in) - The handle is carved in hardwood, with foliate decoration with a leaf border above the knife. The knife has a very sharp blade and has damascene-like decoration to the steel. It fits well into a tapering sheath, which looks as if it is carved out of walnut. The collar between the handle and the blade looks as if it is copper with beaded decoration. There is rope bound around the edge of the sheath. It looks as if there are later initials carved in the back of it. : £50-80 (Arms & Armour)
