14th Century quillon Daggers with Fullers?
Hey everyone. So I'm going to be making a dagger to go with my mid-14th century English kit, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any quillon daggers from around that time that have fullered blades. I haven't seen any myself, but daggers aren't my main focus.

Thanks in advance,
Alan

Here is one that Peter Johnsson used as a model for one of his projects.

That one might be late 13th century, but it?s close. :). Here?s another late 13th century example.

Awesome, thanks for the pics!
There are other some quillon daggers dated to the 14th century. Here are a couple, from Harold Peterson's old book.

Baselards/Swiss daggers had fullers in the 14th century. The occasional rondel as well. While there are also diamond section blades, a fuller is defensible. :)

Thanks for those pics, Chad. Yeah, I've seen a number of baselards with fullers, just not specifically quillon daggers. The one Arne posted is very similar to what I was envisioning.
