Scottish Dirk| 17th Century Hand-Forged Highland Dagger

The Scottish dirk emerged in the 17th century as a traditional Highland sidearm. Early versions were simple yet powerful, often featuring plain wood and bronze handles and long, reliable blades. Worn by clansmen and warriors alike, the dirk became a symbol of Scottish martial tradition and personal defense.

This functional reproduction is inspired by those early dirks, capturing their elegance and ruggedness. Forged by hand from high-quality 5160 spring steel, the blade offers both resilience and cutting power. It is water-tempered for strength and flexibility, then sharpened to ensure it's battle-ready for reenactment, collection, or field use.

The handle is crafted from solid rosewood, turned and shaped for a comfortable grip. This classic weapon is ideal for historical enthusiasts, collectors, or anyone seeking a piece of Scottish heritage forged to perform.
