This is my first dagger. 100% handmade, no plasma cutting or waterjet. Made from a good tough carbon steel in thin stock, and surprisingly stiff for its thinness, it's razor sharp, slicey, and lightning fast.
Specs
Steel: 3/32" 15N20 heat treated for RC 58-59, thin and tough
Geometry: Double saber-vex, ~15° per side primary edge, 20° per side microbevel
Overall Length: 11"
Cutting Edge Length: 5 3/4"
Weight: 6.5 oz
Handle: Bocote handle scales, and black Micarta bolsters. Stainless steel pins. Waterproof adhesive. I still recommend keeping the handle oiled so as not to allow moisture to degrade the wood.

Thanks for looking!
