This dagger was based on the profile of the Gladius sword, although it's much more modern in construction. This is the first one, but I will be making more shortly.
The blade is a full 1 1/2" wide, with a point similar to the Gladius. Despite the width, it pierces very well - thanks to the deep hollow grinds (both sides) and super sharp edge. The balance is slightly handle heavy and feels great.
It includes a leather belt sheath which, thanks to some careful welt fitting and forming, has great retention. The belt loop stitching is recessed in a groove on the inside of the sheath to keep it safe from the sharp blade.
Thanks for looking!
