I just bought one of these reproduction double-bladed dagger Couteau Poignard Modèle 1916 dit 'Le Vengeur' that is bieng made by Windlass Steelcrafts® and sold by Atlanta Cutlery and Museum Replicas and it an EXCELLENT copy.
I compared it to my original one and these are few little details that are off but in all it is very close to the oiginal pattern and the best part is the price $44.95 + shipping compared to an original that now sells for $300 +. It will make an excellent addition to your French poilu impression.
These can be found on Ebay ...
