Scottish Dirk for my Son

Post by EthanEvans-Hilton »

For my Son’s 21st Birthday this year, I made him a thing. A Scottish dirk with thorns and vines file work in the spine and brass work, a Damascus pattern blade, and a wood core leather scabbard in Native American style to celebrate both sides of his heritage. I just hope he likes it.

Be pretty surprising if he didn't like it!

Lovely work.
I am sure that he will treasure it for a lifetime.
