Replica of a German dagger pistol. As the name implies, it is a dagger with a flintlock pistol mounted in its centre. This combination of dagger or knife and pocket pistol was an oddity that was rather custom-made. In the Age of Sail, pistol daggers / pistol knives were used by naval forces and pirates alike. Their dual function as a firearm and an edged melee weapon made them particularly useful in close quarters combat.
