Let's see your good old basic fixed blades, Bowie's, Stickers, etc.

I just took this pic of my newest, a Straight Hunter from Big Chris Berry here on the forums.
.102" CPM-S90V @ 61 and .009" above the bevel, a wicked thin-edged slicer. G10 handle covers.

Cold Steel Naval Dirk
This Cold Steel interpretation of the classic shipboard weapon features a 16 1/2", double edged, 1055 Carbon steel blade with a wide fuller and a thick spine for strength. To protect one's fingers and to serve as an aid in parrying, it has a solid brass cross guard. The traditionally styled polished black horn grip is ornamented with a brass pommel and matching spacers. Handsomely crafted and ready for battle, the Cold Steel Naval Dirk comes complete with a wood lined leather scabbard. The scabbard includes a decorative brass throat and chape as well as a brass carrying ring.

Nice job breathing some life into that old stacked-handle knife, Poez! Do you know who the maker was? I didn't see any identifying marks in the pics.

JB - what are the dimensions on that Fleming? It looks like a sweet little EDC. :thumbup:

Thanks, it's about 7" overall. Nice balance, great grinds and edge geometry.
 
Jack, I have that Naval Dirk displayed on an oak board, mounted to the wall by my front door. It's pretty handy ... you know, in case I lock myself in or something ;)
 
just came in yesterday! Sweetness.

And it kinda goes with the Marlow White ceremonial Cutlass I was presented with by the Chief's mess upon my retirement from Naval service

Now I get it! I've always looked at the hole in the handle of these knives, and thought "that's an odd place for a lanyard tube..."
But, seeing it next to the sheath in your photo, I now understand that it's a system designed to hold the knife in its sheath! Am I understanding it correctly, that the leather thong loop is threaded through the hole, and then looped back over the butt of the handle?

Really nice Jim. My wife's uncle was career Navy. My Uncle was Captain of the USS Sterett 68-70.
