Hello
this English bowie dates from 1890
it must have been imported to usa (it is marked for import)
and come back to France for ww1
I think the initials and number can be that of a US soldier
(If it was an English soldier the dagger would not have had the inscription
and the numbers have nothing French seems t it)
your opinions light up as always ????

Hello

The knife would date from after 1890 which is when to comply with US tax laws items had to be marked with country of origin.
