Can someone tell me more about this dagger with a bronze hilt?

Upvote:1

I think this is a Bohermeen style dagger. Given the hilt picture and the blade length, it look similar to a dagger discovered in a Irish bog near Dublin. This dagger now resides in the National Museum of Ireland. Unfortunately, there is no picture.

Bronze dagger with dark patination all over. The hafting plate is roughly trapezoidal. The remains of 2 rivet holes occur on this plate. Below the hafting plate the sides are markedly concave. This evens out and the blade, oval in section, for most of its length tapers gently towards the point which is now missing. Navanhistory
