armthearmour:

An absolutely stunning dagger with a leaf shaped blade, in which the tang appears to have been wrapped around to form the handle and joined again with the blade, then chiseled into the design of an oak branch with leaves and acorns, German, ca. 19th century, from Czerny’s International Auction House. I love this tremendously, and I wish I had the money to buy it (as of now, it is still for sale).
