Overview
Tod Cutler - 14th Century Bronze Hilted Rondel Dagger
This stunning 14th Century bronze hilted medieval rondel dagger is based on a museum example; the hilt is cast fine bronze and is fitted to a very strong and stiff single edged blade of tempered high carbon steel. Suitable for a knight or man at arms, this dagger is not only suitably fashionable for a personage of status, but its long and rigid blade is quite deadly and well capable of powerful, penetrative thrusts through thick clothing or the weakpoints of an armored harness. The single edge blade allows for it to have a very thick spine which imparts excellent rigidity to the blade, ensuring no loss of energy and power in the strike.
The dagger is paired with a high quality sheath of vegetable tanned leather which is completed with a detailed cast bronze chape.

Truly a work of art, both in design and execution. I have plenty of swords, daggers, and other sharp pointy things but this one easily stands out as one of my favorites. The blade slides out of the sheath like butter and it’s a pleasure to handle. The blade and grip are pretty narrow which makes the almost 13″ blade seem much longer than it is. The edge on mine is perfect but not “sharp” considering its meant for thrusting, not slashing. Quite fearsome really as it would easily go though almost any target with little effort.
Definitely the nicest rondel dagger I’ve ever owned. The bronze makes it seem less “Blingy” than brass so it has a utilitarian but fancy vibe to it. This knife is a TANK. The blade is quite thick and it came sharp. The edge is as sharp as it can be with the blade thickness but the point is ready to puncture mail. In the hands, it feels like a robust weapon. The grip is beautifully crafted and has impressive linework in the bronze. The grip is slimmer than you might be expecting but I assume this is to better fit a gloved-hand and since the orientation of the blade is not that important (it’s a thrusting knife), it works well. The sheath, like all TC daggers, is utilitarian but beautiful. Holds the knife perfectly on the belt and looks good. I really like the checkered thread-pattern where the leather tongs attach to the sheath. You can’t go wrong with this dagger. You will love it.
