Cold Steel Knives Naval Dirk
During the golden age of sail, the Naval Dirk was a common sight on port town streets or on the windswept quarterdecks of a British Man of War. Worn daily by young mid shipmen and officers alike, it was often beautifully made and richly decorated. It was never simply a fashion accessory though; it was a very dangerous and lethal weapon. At sea, it made for a very effective slashing or stabbing tool that could be used independently or in combination with a cutlass, sword or saber. Cold Steel's interpretation...

DESCRIPTION: This represented the period changeover of the Model1921-pattern dirk with the black grip to the white grip in 1929. The white grip was perceived to be more in keeping with the reborn modern German Navy. This dagger is possibly one of those that had the darker 1921 ball pommel and when the grip was replaced on the probable 1921 dagger, the top was replaced as well. This model was used all the way up to the time that the Kriegsmarine changed the pommel in 1938 to an eagle with swastika...
