Capt. Iron Faith Cutler Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Ahoy! I be seekin' a fine dagger fer meself, somethin' that looks right to the Golden Age time period, but that is sharp (fer slittin' throats, no doubt) and usable. Arr! Iron Faith A pyrate's life for me.
John_Young Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 This may sound a bit strange.... but the United Cutlery Morgan's Dagger from Cutthroat Island. I picked one up 3 years ago for $50 at a faire... and it is fight worthy as a parrying blade. Sharp and pointy too. "Yo Ho, all together hoist the colours high Heave Ho, theives and beggers Never shall we die..."

Coastie04 Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 A simple, sharp blade with a simple wooden handle. It's usefull, and actually looks good with a pirate outfit. A home-made leather sheath for it helps, too. I personally have a buck knife with leather sheath and a (fake) bone handle. It also has a bit of brass on it, which makes it somewhat fancy, and I've used some seine twine to make a lanyard for it.

John_Young Posted June 14, 2004 Posted June 14, 2004 And since we've seen you spam us with comments like these before... how much are they paying you?

Cire Posted June 14, 2004 Posted June 14, 2004 Too much probably. s/he can't punctuate proper. Because the world does revolve around me, and the universe is geocentric....
Grendle Posted June 14, 2004 Posted June 14, 2004 To the original question. ... How's about an Arkansas Toothpick fer a dagger? Large, double-edged, pointy blade, with basic handle and a bit o' brass ... makes a fine main gauche, if a tifle on the large side. They're (rr rrr) available from many sources. I got mine for $15 and it's got a tang as thick about as a pencil (not combat worthy) and I keep it sharp enow to shave with, but if'n I'm gonna be whackin' and slashin', the lefty blade stays in the sheath, anyhow.
