Traditional Dagger Knife

The process and technique is renowned for smithing the finest combat knife blades, and certainly forms a very lethal foundational core to this Chinese knife. 

Further promoting perfection, is the very difficult process of clay-tempering the blade. This process precisely facilitates hardening of the blade’s edges, while leaving the blade’s core softer and thus resilient. Definitely a marker of advanced blade-making technology and visibly identifiable on this double edge dagger blade. 

Completed with a premium Ebony hardwood scabbard, premium brass fittings, and a matching Ebony hardwood handle, forming a practical and effective, traditional knife hand-grip.

Collectable, a pleasure to own and a deadly Chinese dagger.
