Product information "Twisted handle Scottish Dirk"
The early Scottish dirk was a direct descendent of the medieval ballock dagger. The grip form began to change, probably sometime in the 16th century, but soon developed a form that was purely Scottish. The later versions that are quite popular, are somewhat debased in form, and not the pure fighting weapon of the early version. And make no mistake about it... this dirk was a pure fighting knife, and unabashedly so.
The Generation2 version is made from a 1 piece solid handle hand carved to look like twisted wood, with brass accents.
The blade is made from 5160 tempered carbon steel, fully tanged. The scabbard is wood wrapped in leather.
This dagger comes with a sharp blade.
Blade length: 12"
Overall length: 18 1/4"
Balance Point: At Ricasso
Weight: 1 lbs. 8.5 oz.

Zum Dolch: Er sieht sehr gut aus, ist schön schwer und auch recht scharf. Selbst das obere Drittel der Rückseite ist geschliffen. Der Dirk selbst hätte 5 Sterne verdient. Die Scheide: Die Scheide ist leider nichts besonderes. Der Dolch geht, wenn überhaupt nur mit Gewalt rein und kommt dann ein wenig schmutzig wieder heraus. Daher rührt der Punktabzug. Ansonsten kann ich das Teil uneingeschränkt empfehlen!
