8691  Above.   Dagger with  Ladder Pattern Damascus Blade.    Blued Steel fittings with African Blackwood handle.  Overall length is 10 1/2 inches.  The blade is 5 3/4 inches long by 1 inch wide. The blade is all tool steel (1084/15N20).    With hand tooled black leather sheath.   $495

 

  This blade was made from the same billet and will look very similar to #8675 except for the blade shape.

 

The handle is darker than the photos show but is not absolutely black.  African Blackwood is a far more durable wood than Ebony which splits easily and is prone to cracking over time.  African Blackwood is the wood that reed instrument makers use because of its ability to withstand temperature and moisture changes with little adverse effect.
