Description
Long enough to be thought of as a small sword, this Royal Navy Midshipman?s Dirk is of the 1856 pattern. It has an unsharpened blade of high carbon steel that is embossed with the iconography of the Crown and the Royal Navy. It has a blank section that is ideal for etching. The hilt is of brass and the grip is of faux rayskin inlaid with strands of twisted brass wire. The scabbard is of black leather and is capped with a throat and chape piece of brass with two hanging rings. The scabbard has a simple locking mechanism that slides into the guard, locking it into place. It is released with light pressure on locking lever.
