Overview
Windlass - Early Scottish Dirk
This early style Scottish dirk is a direct descendant of the medieval ballock dagger. The grip form began to change, probably sometime in the late 16th century, but soon developed a form that was purely Scottish. The blade was long and single-edged. Made to use alone, with a shield and sword, or just with a basket-hilt claymore.
The Early Scottish Dirk features a single edged blade with triple fullers. Includes a matching wood scabbard with black leather wrap and steel accents.
