FIDELITER-type dagger with bronze hilt After careful evaluation, considering the overall condition, the patina, the quality of the workmanship, the presence of a leather "tie" at the tang of the blade, evidence of a sheath originally present, and the workmanship of the blade... I have come to the conclusion that the object is original from the period. What could it be? The commonly known FIDELITER, after decades of speculation, has finally been discovered to whom it was intended, thanks to a stroke of luck: a Legion of Blackshirts of the Border (not yet the Border Militia). Therefore, we hope something will come to light sooner or later. Bronze hilt, steel blade Perhaps for the Commander? For the Officers?
