Doc Hagen Dagger

[dredd8]

This is a beautiful little folding dagger I got from Doc Hagen. Sliding bolster release, beautiful Desert Ironwood scales. Awesome. Engraving by Bruce Shaw. DOES IT GET ANY BETTER?

engraved, maybe, looks good as is too! Paul

looks great, how do you close it with the double edges safely?

Actually, the edges of the blade are not really sharp, just the tip.

Sent to Mr. Bruce Shaw to put some fancy stuff on it, will post pics on return.

Wow, he did a great job! Here's what I see (and probably so did Bruce): The blade is disproportionately thin in comparison to the handle. Bruce gave the bolster some wide borders, which thins and centers that area down to match the blade best.

This truly made this piece enhanced. Good work. Also you can spot Bruce's style from across the room...

I wish you would have saved the 'before' image. MAKEOVER!!!

Thanks!
