Magnum Sgian Dubh

As received the knife was very sharp. I have used a knife of this type for over ten years, and I have found the edge stays sharp.  This is not a knife for everyday use, it is a knife that I keep in reserve as a back-up to my handgun.  The scabbard could be improved.  I carry the knife over the left kidney at belt level, and I kneed/want the knife to be slanted to the right to present the grip for a quick edge up stab.  The current scabbard holds the knife upright rather than at a steep angle.  The scabbard is also made from light weight leather, and could be heavier/stronger.  One needs to use care when replacing the knife in the scabbard, because it will easily penetrate the inside side of the scabbard and cut clothing.

The knife is great, as noted before the sheath is not perfect.  Its not bad, it just has a belt loop that would not be easy to remove. It still feels pretty good when worn in the stocking though.  The blade itself is fantastic and razor sharp.

Fantastic knife. My favorite in my collection. My collection is varied and has kept me busy for over 50 years. Workmanship excellent.

This is a real nice little (ha!) dagger. The only thing that could be better is the sheath.
