Antique Victorian Large Spanish Toledo Neo Renaissance Dagger

Antique Victorian, late 19th century large Spanish Toledo dagger in the Neo-Renaissance style, with double-edged blade.
The sturdy, tapered blade is made of steel and is finely engraved on both sides TOLEDO within a pattern of cherubs, griffins, scrolls, and floral ornaments on the blackened ground.
The hilt comprised an ornate metal crossguard crisply cast in the form of a double-headed eagle, the coat of arms of Toledo, a grant of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor (Charles I, King of Spain).
The eagle, bearing a heraldic shield with the arms of Castile and Leon, is surrounded by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece.
The wood grip is bound with wire, surmounted by the pommel as an imperial crown.

This type of dagger, along with other arms and armor, was crafted in Toledo during the late 19th century as souvenirs for Rand Tours. Although they are still being manufactured today, the quality of newer models differs from the older ones. The dagger at hand is an antique, good-quality example from the late 19th century.

MEASUREMENTS:
Overall length: 41.5 cm (16.34 inches).
Width of the blade at its widest point: 3.4 cm (1.34 inches).

CONDITION: This dagger has withstood the test of time and shows signs of wear and use, but is still in good condition overall.
