About the Scottish Dirk:
The Scottish Dirk is a traditional weapon and tool with a rich history, primarily originating from Scotland in the 16th century. It was originally carried by Highland Scots as both a sidearm and a utility knife, often worn at the waist as part of the full Highland attire. The dirk became synonymous with the Scottish warrior culture, renowned for its versatility, strength, and distinctive design.
The blade is typically long, narrow, and double-edged, making it ideal for thrusting, cutting, and general utility tasks. The Everest Forge Scottish Dirk is a modern take on this iconic weapon, blending time-tested forging techniques with high-performance materials for exceptional durability and sharpness.
Traditionally, the Scottish Dirk was used in close combat situations, where its long blade could be employed effectively in confined spaces. Today, it is appreciated for its historical significance as well as its practical uses in hunting, outdoor activities, and even as a collector's item.
Our hand-forged Scottish Dirk is designed to honor the history of this legendary blade while providing you with a functional, durable tool for a wide range of tasks. Whether you are a collector, a reenactor, or someone who appreciates high-quality knives, the Everest Forge Scottish Dirk offers both historical authenticity and modern-day performance.
