Dress up dagger - lots of pictures

[Ruben Calo]

This is a piece I just finished for a local collector and regular client of mine.

7 1/2" blade in 440C Stainless Steel, satin finish with an acid etched decorative pattern. 13 1/4" overall length. 5/32" blade thickness.

Combined handle in polished axis deer stag and calafate wood with nickel silver spacers. Guard in forged nickel silver with 2 Citrine quartz stones. Nickel silver pommel and fittings.

Handle in leather with nickel silver fittings and tumbaga (simil gold) guard details.


All nickel silver parts have a satinized patina to create an aged look.
