18thC Scottish Highland dirk in brass and black wood. ย The dirk was the iconic Scottish dagger and was an absolute must have for Highland warriors for centuries.
However the dirk was always a big knife, often with blades of 14″/35cm or more and unless you are still fighting amongst the glens and lochs, it is not that useable on a daily basis. ย So we have brought you a perfectly styled late 17th/early 18thC Scottish dirk but with a shorter overall length of 10.75″/27cm to fit better in the modern world allowing it to be a far more useable EDC.ย
Brass haunches, a cylindrical beaded black wood grip and brass pommel, so it looks all ‘dirk’ but will be easier to wear and use for tasks.
It has a fully functional, 6.75″/17.5cm single edged blade with file work spine and comes with a with a period decorated naturally tanned leather sheath (in red, green, black, brown and new blue) and brass chape.ย
We have 3 sizes of this style; the Sgian Dhu, the short brass and black wood dirk, and the long brass and black wood dirk. ย Available individually or as a set.
Overall length 10.75″/27cm
Blade length 6.75″/17.5cm
Grip length 4″/10cm
As our knives are handmade, these measurements may vary very slightly between examples.ย
Edge Sharpness
Semi-Sharp is ‘butter knife sharp’; it has a very fine flat on the edge
Sharp has been ground to give a reasonable cutting edge, but final honing, if required, is by the customer.
