28\" Scottish Dirk Sword – Hand Forged 5160 Leaf Spring Steel
This 21-inch Scottish Dirk sword is carefully hand forged from premium 5160 leaf spring steel, a material widely respected for its durability, resilience, and excellent edge retention. Known for its strength and flexibility, 5160 steel performs reliably under demanding conditions while maintaining a sharp cutting edge.
Using traditional blacksmith forging techniques, each blade is individually shaped and refined to improve the steel’s internal grain structure. After forging, the blade undergoes a water tempering process to achieve the optimal balance of hardness and flexibility. The blade is then sharpened to a keen edge, making it ready for practical use.
The classic Scottish Dirk blade design features a long, elegant profile that offers balanced handling and strong cutting capability. This traditional style is admired by collectors, historical enthusiasts, and those who appreciate authentic handmade blades.
The handle is crafted from solid whitewood, providing a comfortable grip and natural durability while maintaining a clean and classic appearance that complements the hand-forged blade.
This dirk sword combines traditional craftsmanship with modern steel performance, resulting in a durable and visually striking blade suitable for collectors, display, or practical cutting applications.
