Dagger

Description

The image depicts an ancient metal weapon-likely a dagger. The blade is slender and double-edged, with noticeable corrosion and wear, indicating considerable age. A longitudinal stiffening ridge runs along the center of the blade. The tip is slightly tapered, and the guard and tang appear to be forged as a single piece with the blade-a characteristic feature of weapons made using forging techniques.
The tang ends in a circular hole, which may have been used to attach the weapon to a belt or to thread a strap through it.
