Dag - GRPO 3057

Heavily corroded dag blade

Heavily corroded ferrous metal hand dag with broken tip. This dag resembles items produced by the English cutler John Sorby in the early 19th century. Dags were popular knives among the Native Peoples trading with the North West Company, as the inventory of 1797 at Grand Portage records 196 of these blades on hand at the depot.
