Overview
14th Century Rondel Dagger with Brass fittings - Deepeeka
This Medieval 14th Century Rondel Dagger is not merely an attractive sidearm but also a dagger designed for capably defeating foes both on and off the battlefield. The slim design is easy to wear at all times and the thin blade is designed to penetrate into the weak points in an armored defense - or through thick cloaks and clothes in a self defense situation when in town.
The blade is forged from high carbon steel and it is securely mounted into a hilt with a spiralled grip of carved wood which is surmounted by on rondels of brass. The rondels serve to couch the hand and give it something to push against to greatly increase penetrative power. Included is a sheath of thick, stitched leather with an integrated belt loop.

Q&A
Questions from the community
Q What is this dagger made of, and what was it designed for? Common Question
The blade is forged from C60 high carbon steel, a tough, shock-resistant alloy well suited to full-tang construction. This is a rondel dagger, a 14th-century design with a slim, thrusting blade meant to find gaps in armor or punch through heavy cloaks and clothing in close combat.
Q Does this dagger come sharp? Common Question
No, the edge ships blunt. It carries the Battle Ready classification, meaning it's built from solid materials for durability and handling, but it is not edged for cutting.
Q What is the grip and hilt made of? Common Question
The grip is carved wood with a spiral pattern in a reddish-brown finish, fitted between brass pommel and guard pieces. The pommel is peened over the tang, which locks the blade, grip, and fittings together as one solid assembly.
Q Does it come with a sheath? Common Question
Yes, it includes a sheath of thick, stitched leather with an integrated belt loop, so it can be worn on a belt.
Q How should I care for the blade and leather sheath? Common Question
Wipe the high carbon steel blade down after handling and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust, since carbon steel will corrode if left damp. Store the dagger dry, and keep it out of the leather sheath for long-term storage, as leather holds moisture against the blade and can promote rust over time.
Q What does the decoration on the blade look like? Common Question
Near the guard, the blade carries an etched or engraved panel with scrollwork and foliate motifs set within a bordered design, while the rest of the blade has a plain polished or satin finish. The hilt fittings at the pommel and guard are brass-toned and hexagonal in shape.
Q How does the balance feel in the hand? Common Question
The point of balance sits 5/8'' from the guard, close to the hilt. That forward-light balance suits a thrusting dagger like this one, keeping the point quick and controllable for precise, directed strikes rather than slashing power.
Q What can this dagger be used for today? Common Question
With its blunt edge, this piece is well suited to historical display, reenactment, and handling practice rather than live cutting. Its weight, balance, and full peened-tang construction reflect genuine period design, making it a solid study piece or costume companion for anyone interested in 14th-century arms.
