Hand Made Dagger (Trench Art), Lambert Fell, Yorkshire Regiment. (2)

These items were given to me by my late mother. The postcard/ birthday card was from my grandfather LAMBERT FELL who was a 2nd Lieutenant to my mother for her birthday on 11th May. The 2 daggers have been hand made. 1. Appears that the handle is made from old shell cartridges. 2. Has SOMME crudely engraved. Editor's Comment: Acting Serjeant 21164 Lambert Fell, Yorkshire Regiment (Green Howards), later Temporary Seond Lieutenant, Labour Corps (Comissioned 2nd April, 1918). The first knife is made from a British .303 cartridge, with two additional bullets used to form a cross-guard. Soldered to the top of the handle is a button (probably the British General Service pattern with royal coat of arms), forming a pommel. Ricasso of the blade is in the form of a Maltese Cross.

这批藏品均由我已故的母亲赠予我。这张明信片/生日贺卡来自我的祖父兰伯特·费尔（LAMBERT FELL），彼时他以少尉身份在我母亲5月11日的生日之际赠予她。这两把匕首均为手工打造：1. 其手柄似乎由老旧的弹壳制成；2. 其上粗糙镌刻有"索姆（SOMME）"字样。编辑备注：兰伯特·费尔（编号21164，代理中士，约克郡团〈绿霍华德营〉），后于1918年4月2日获委任为劳工军团临时少尉。首件匕首由英国.303口径步枪弹制成，另外两枚子弹被用作十字护手。手柄顶端焊接有一枚纽扣（大概率为带有英国皇家纹章的英军通用制式纽扣），以此作为柄首。刀刃的刀根部分采用马耳他十字造型。
