Dirk

LENGTH: 13 - 20 inches
WEIGHT: ½ - 1½ pounds

DESCRIPTION:
Carried primarily as a weapon but was often used as a tool. It is believed to have derived from the dudgeon dagger and first appeared around the year 1400 and was essentially a highland rather than a lowland weapon. No highlander would be without one as many of his enemies found out.

These designs have a bone and walnut handle respectively.
