A traditional Scottish Highland dirk from the late 19th century, featuring the iconic bog oak handle carved with celtic knotwork. The single-edged blade is hefty and sharp, with decorative file work along the spine. Brass fittings and a leather-covered scabbard complete the ensemble, reflecting the pride of Highland dress. Originally a sidearm for battle, by this period it had evolved into a symbol of status and cultural identity. This piece is an excellent representation of Victorian-era Scottish militaria, perfect for display alongside a claymore or basket-hilted broadsword.
