Knights of Malta Decorative Dagger with White Scabbard

Knights of Malta Decorative Dagger with White Scabbard

Appearance and Craftsmanship:

This decorative dagger catches the eye immediately with its elaborate design. The hilt (grip, guard, and pommel) is crafted from a quality Zamak alloy with a silver-bronze patina finish. The pommel is disc-shaped featuring a knightly emblem, while the textured grip provides a firm hold. The straight crossguard curves slightly towards the blade, its ends adorned with detailed fleur-de-lys motifs. The centre of the guard also bears a knightly cross emblem.

The dagger's blade is made from 420 stainless steel. It measures approximately 23.5 cm (approx. 9.25 inches) in length and has a classic, double-edged appearance, tapering to a point. Importantly, the blade comes factory blunt, with an edge thickness of about 1 mm, making it safe for display purposes.

Included is a striking white scabbard made from durable resin. Its design is complemented by three red crosses, typical of the Knights of Malta. The scabbard features metal fittings – a locket at the throat and a chape at the tip, also decorated with the fleur-de-lys motif, completing the overall historical look.
