    I don't want to post a picture of the item yet because I'm not sure if it's aloud... So if someone gives me the ok, can someone help me get information and a price range for this antique looking dagger here? I found it in my attic when we first moved in like 10 years ago. I used have sword fights with it as a kid. If not a price just information about it please. I figured this would be the best place to ask, plus I didn't know which section this should go in. Thanks in advance.

    yo the historical value of the dagger can really raise its price. Carbon dating of it might help. Where was it found? Who used it? What info is on it? Who made it?

    Take it to a local antique shop, they might be able to help you. Or wait in line to go on "antiques roadshow"

    If it's just a picture of a dagger, it is allowed to post it here.
    So go ahead.

    Now...if it's a picture of a dagger in a dead body that you recently killed, you might not want to post that.

    Well, if he selected just the dagger so as to not show the corpse, I don't see why he wouldn't be allowed to post it

    ...because he can no longer show it.

    the dagger is in him.

    What you do is click on "share it" on the picture and the second URL is what you copy, then come back here and click on the " insert image" icon and then erase whatever is there when it opens then post your link to your picture there.

    Looks like a Sikh dagger, maybe silver.

    Sikh Dagger.. Thanks, I'll look it up. It's gold with a ruby and 2 emeralds on the handle.

    Difficult =/. I'll get it someday though. At least now I know I don't need to have a certain amount of posts to put a picture in. Thanks =]
