   @matt @smurthys First, please be careful in handling them. I was scared when I saw them held over your lap while seated.

   You have a German Fireman’s Knife (the one with a black sheath) and a Palestinian Shibriya dagger. Your grandfather must have been a collector.

     Going through a box of my late grandfathers belongings from the Second World War. 📦

     There’s a lot of good stuff here with a lot of history behind it. 🤓

     But does anyone have any knowledge of what these daggers are? Specifically the silver one. 🗡️

     There’s something inscribed on the blade. I’m not sure what.
