It was beautifully made and very effective, just like this true to original replica from Cold Steel. Although it is a replica, it is one that is well done and which didn’t deviate from the historical original. This means that it is an item for every collector of historical hand weapons. Of course those that love Scotland will like this dirk also, but role playing and people simply looking for something attractive will be satisfied also. Since it is battle ready and the blades sharp, it can also be used for training with daggers.

The blade of the Scottish Dirk is 13 inches long and a quarter of an inch thick. It is made of 1055 carbon steel and the leather scabbard is included so you can store it away safely. The handle is interested because it is made of rosewood and is capped by a steel guard that has a blue color to it. The pommel is disc shaped which is a unique feature. Overall this weapon is well made and is sure to be an eye catcher no matter how it is used. This is the perfect gift fot the Scottish swords & weapons collector.
