AAS Dagger - Sort of....

Post by SchwarzStock »

I have a fondness for daggers despite their limited use. The F-S is of course a classic but with a weak tip and tang. The Australians fixed the weak tip part but retained the weak, rat-tail tang. I wanted my bladesmith to make a Bowie but he said he could not find a suitable piece of stag so I asked what he wanted to do and he said a dagger. I said ok, let me think about this. I sent him a photoshop of an AAS (Australian Army Stiletto) blade with an Ek F-S full-tang handle. This is the end result with an African Blackwood handle.
