This knife draws inspiration from English blades shaped by influences from the East, a testament to the exchange of smithing traditions across cultures. The handle scales are fashioned from polished hardwood, their smooth grain providing a comfortable grip that contrasts with the sturdy nickel guards and pins securing the assembly.

The accompanying scabbard is made from thick leather, reinforced with nickel fittings at the throat and tip to safeguard the blade while reflecting the style of the period. This piece reflects the practical artistry found in blades of its kind.
