Traditional Sica Dagger – Hand-Forged Curved Combat Blade | Everest Forge

The Sica is a historical blade rooted in the Balkans and famously used by Thracian warriors and later adopted by Roman gladiators, especially the Thraex class. Its signature forward-curving blade was designed to bypass shields and armor, delivering devastating strikes in close quarters.

This functional replica of the Sica dagger blends traditional Roman-Thracian design with Nepalese craftsmanship. The 18-inch curved blade is meticulously hand-forged from 5160 high carbon leaf spring steel, water-tempered for flexibility, strength, and lasting sharpness. Sharpened and semi-polished, it’s battle-ready straight out of the sheath.

The 7-inch rosewood handle features a full tang and is capped with robust metal pommel and guard rings for durability, balance, and historical authenticity. The black leather scabbard is tailored to fit the curved blade, ensuring secure carry and elegant presentation.
