In this case I used a very common blade as it´s offered by companies like CrazyCrow or Track-of-the-wolf. It´s a carbon steel blade of decent quality, comparable to c6o that correlates to 1060 in the USA, I think.
Those blades are a great alternative to my self made blades, although I have to reshape them a little bit, because I like my dirks to follow the shape of jacobean dirks.
The handle is cocobolo with brass, treated with linseed oil after carving.
length of the blade is 12´, blade width 1 1/2´, total length 16 1/2´.
Regards
Thomas
