Product description
A fine early model Scottish dirk by Windlass Steelcrafts, based on medieval and Renaissance originals from around 1500. The Scottish dagger originated from the medieval bullock dagger. Highlanders wore the dirk as a daily tool and weapon. The Scottish dirk has also become a symbol of Highlander honour, and oaths are sworn upon it. The dirk has been worn daily by Highlanders for centuries. The grip is crafted from hardwood, whilst the semi-sharp blade is constructed from tempered 1065 carbon steel with a hardness of 48–52 HRC. It is supplied complete with a leather scabbard. Particularly well-suited to collectors, lovers of Scottish history and the Highlands. When blunted, the blade is well-suited to reenactment battles and Historical European Martial Arts.
