The Global Egyptian Museum

Among the interesting items found in the wrappings of the king's mummy are two wonderful daggers with their sheaths. 

This dagger has a gold sheath, decorated on the front with a feather pattern and on the back with a palmetto design. 

The significance of the dagger lies in its blade, made of approximately 97 percent iron and 3 percent nickel, a precious rarity in an age that still depended on copper for weaponry. 

The handle is exquisitely decorated with gold granulation and glass inlays and is fitted with a knob of rock crystal.
