1914 dated Lithgow hooked quilion , with 10411 on pomel along with 1MD [ Queensland i believe ].

Unfortunatley somebody in the past has put a slight edge on it , should i take it to a bladesmith and have it blunted again or should i leave it be?

Looks lovely Mick! Even though I don't collect these I can still admire it!

 

As for the edge? Well, with my archaeologist hat on - leave as is. Part of its history - could have been done in the field!

 

Have you sorted out the 1 MD marking yet?
