Walnut handled dirk
« on: February 06, 2021, 06:01:30 AM »
Dirk, inspired by the work of Glen McClain and Stash David, I finished the other day.  Iron mounted dirk with file worked spine 11”x1””x1/4”, 15 1/2" overall, 1075 forged steel blade with 4 1/2” false edge, threaded tang turned walnut handle with iron file worked pommel and nut.  The flat horn is by Ron Hess.

I like that one a lot that file work is simple, but gives that blade a whole new dimension.
