A final note on this knife, its not as old as I thought. It really dates from the mid to late 1800's, not from the 1700's as I had thought.

Michael and others-- Check out this link for a very similar Spanish Punal-

http://www.swordsantiqueweapons.com/s593_full.html - This site sells antique swords and daggers from all over the world- Fascinating site to visit, just for the photos--- Described the similar punal as rare and as there are many similartities possibly made by the same person- I'll show a couple of the photos from the site-- More on the site-

Thanks Tim, its over 200 years old. Its neat the way they inlaid the bit of brass in the blade, old world craftsman.
