Another wonderful update! Great content, Chad and Nathan!

Excellent job guys! Great article & reviews Chad.

Nathan, your illustration showing the blade geometry of the ballock dagger is an awesome professional touch.

:cool:

Bill

Thanks for the kind words, guys. It was a fun set to work on. I always learn something in the process of writing these articles. My only worry was that the heavily Scot-centric theme would only interest a small group. I think I was mistaken. :)

Stephen,
I agree about Nathan's illustration. It's even better than what I was looking for. He does great work.

Great work! Chad.
Do you have a good picture of tip end on that Vince Evans Ballock Dagger?
That would be Royal Excellent to see, i really like that blade with the fuller on backend of it. :D

OOH!
and i like that blade to, second from lower end on this picture who looks like a old style seax blade :cool:

Here are some photos from my album:

I'll see what else is on my hard drive at home later.

Patrik,
I couldn't find any good angles at home, so I took some more pictures. :) It's tough to really show it though.

I have to leave for the airport in an hour and a half, so I don't have time to crop them down and make them look nice. I'll try to post them next week.

I can wait Chad :D
The funny is, in a fast look on it (Blade) its just look as a simple blade,
but in the review, it full of hidden stuff and function's, a really eye opener :cool:
