I had the Paul Chen Dirk, I did not think about shortening it and adding some carving it would have looked a lot better, that is a very large Dirk for sure!

Thanks everyone for there replies.

That could fit any time in the early-to-mid-1700s. Brass grips were occasionally used very close to what's shown there. Even pewter.
