Schmid found the dagger — which is decorated with inlaid silver and brass — on a small hill beside a river gorge in the spring of 2019. His metal detector sensed only a very slight signal at first, which suggested a small object. As he started digging, however, Schmid realized that the signal had to be from a large object that was buried relatively deeply — and he uncovered the complete dagger about 12 inches (30 centimeters) below the surface.
