                                  This dagger was unearthed near Tampa Bay in the early 1960s. The 7 7/8 inch needle-point blade has a shallow diamond cross-section. The crossguard has short down-turned quillons, and is decorated with three deep accent grooves at its center. The pommel is round and decorated with grooves in an oblong curved pattern.
