Product Description

Full tang, rounded and mostly blunt. Aafter a quick file it would be a 'ready-to-go' combat dagger or with a little sharpen it could be a multi-use dagger for the medieval re-enactor. This dagger has a 5mm false (back) edge and 0.5~1.5mm blade edge. (variations do occur so please specify you need)

This dagger features a circular brass guard & pommel, leather grip and full tang blade that is peened through the pommel. It also includes a leather sheath with belt loop.

The straight blade would not have lent itself to a slashing or sabre action. Rondel daggers were ideal in battle for puncturing chain mail, and although they would not have been able to punch through plate armour, they could be forced between the joints in a suit of armour and helmets. This was often the only way in which a heavily armoured knight could be killed.

Size: 245mm Blade, 375mm Overall
Weight: 315 grams
