One of the most interesting features of the beautiful Renaissance dagger is its hexagonal, riveted grip made of nickel silver. It is slightly rounded to fit your hand. The three fullers, one that goes almost the entire length of the dagger and two others that stop at the end of the ricasso, decorate the blade. The crossguard and pommel are also made of nickel silver.

Our dagger with silver hilt comes with a leather scabbard including a mount and chape made of metal.

Like most of the big cities of the Renaissance, Munich Germany had a town watch. The watchmen enforced the law to some extent but were primarily a well-armed troop of well-to-do citizens out to guard their interests. Our Munich Town Watch dagger is a parrying dagger for the left hand and is meant to be used together with our Munich Town Watch rapier (sold separately).

Thanks to its size, it can be used as a secondary offensive weapon and not for parrying only. Two fullers, each with holes in four places, run the entire length of the ricasso. This ornamental device makes the Munich Town Watch dagger exciting and a bit lighter at the same time. The grip is very ergonomic. It is made of wood elaborately wrapped with steel wire and has a decorative braided wire at both ends. A riveted pommel shaped like a flattened ball completes the hilt of our Munich Town Watch dagger. It comes with a matching scabbard made of leather.

This dagger has large proportions with a thick diamond section blade with a finely formed down-turned guard and large ring guard. These daggers were used primarily in the left hand to parry an opponent's blows. The stepped decorative finials of the downturned guard could also be used to engage an opponent's blade, even if only briefly to provide the opportunity for a counter thrust.

Features a multi-wrapped metal chain grip and exquisite detail. It comes with matching scabbard covered in soft black leather and decorative throat and foot.

It was very popular during the Tudor period and a large number of Bollock Daggers were found on the wreck of the Mary Rose.
