Good Dirk and Sgian Dubh blanks -- where?

CD Fleischer · Jun 24, 2001

Atlanta Cutlery has some but I wondered if anyone knew of a better place to get some. Don't have to be too high quality as I am just starting out and don't want to ruin an excellent blade with my subpar handiwork! LOL

Thanks!

Clay,

If I remember correctly, Texas Knifemaker's actually has a kit for a Highland Dirk, that comes with everything, for about...I wanna say...$40?

Lemme check...well, dang...can't find it in the online store...I KNOW they have it, though...you might want to give 'em a call!

There is a company called Crazy Crow Trading Post that had a good looking Scottish Dirk kit for about $40.

Thanks, Hoplophile. Do you have any contact info for that retailer?

Thanks!

Here is the Url for there site. http://www.crazycrow.com/ You'll need to order the catalog, as they don't list even 1/10th of the blade kits that they offer on the website.
You might try Americana too. Look in the back of a Blade or Knives Illustrated. They are in Kentucky.
