Description

The dagger that Randy Lee began making for A.G. Russell knives toward the end of 2021 had faux ivory for the largest portion of the handle. A little over a year ago, I asked Randy to make six of his narrow tang daggers for us with the idea that I would choose one for the A.G. Russell catalog and the other 5 we would sell through The Cutting Edge®. The faux ivory handled dagger was very popular, so much so that I have asked Randy to make the same dagger with Thuya wood.

The 6″ dagger blade is CPM-154 stainless at 59-60 Rc. with a high mirror polish. It measures right at 1″ wide at the widest point. The handle is Thuya wood with spacers of pinecone in resin and black micarta, separated with thin washers of black fiber, red fiber and nickel silver. The guard and butt are nickel silver. Measures 11″ tip to butt. Weighs 9.5 oz. Includes a hand tooled brown leather sheath made by Randy’s wife Sonja. All handmade in the U.S.A.
