88SD - Scottish Dirk:
The Scottish Dirk that most knife enthusiasts are familiar with these days
is, more or less, a piece of rubbish— a prop—a costume accessory for
stage and screen. It’s declined into a “knife like object” that people hang
above their mantles or on the walls of dimly lit, wood-paneled dens. Our
version is a modern replica that harkens back to an earlier form, when the
dirk was a functioning tool and weapon. The 13" blade is forged to a hard
spring temper from 1050 high carbon steel. It’s 11/2" wide and comes
fully sharpened and battle-ready, prepared to hew down any foe. The
attractive Rosewood handle is capped with a contrasting blued-steel
guard, bolster and disc-shaped pommel, and an handsome leather
scabbard completes the package. The scabbard features an extra wide
belt loop with a blued-steel throat and chape. This is the perfect
companion piece to complete your Highland ensemble, a real fighting
dirk, instead of a useless piece of metal.
