Dagger LENGTH: 10 to 18 inches WEIGHT: 1-2 pounds DESCRIPTION: The dagger is a little smaller than the dirk. Its sharply pointed, double-edged blade was designed mainly as a weapon of war to pierce metal body armor. The addition of a quillian protects the wielder's hand from being cut in close combat. It too can be worn tucked in the belt or in a sheath made of raw hide or wood. This dagger is owned by Britt McTammany and is part of 3-piece matching design including a claid-a-lav, this dagger, and a belt knife. All pieces have a matching quillian design and wooden hilts made from black walnut |
