Hello,

I am just about to finish up a ballock dagger that i will be adding to my lineup and would love to get some feedback as you will be seeing more historically inspired blades from me. These will also be offered with matching scabbards.

Here are the specs.

15" overall
10" blade
3/8" hollow ground 1075 high carbon steel
bloodwood with brass grip

Regards,

John

You know you have my vote. Thats I nice lookin' ballock! Errr...dagger. :blush:

Now that is nice. :cool: :cool: :cool:

Part of the lineup ? Any pricing details you would like to share. ;) :D I can't afford to be tempted right now but others may want one NOW.

John,

My feedback is on both the more and less historical side of things, you keep doing nice work. Its going to be fun watching you develop your own niche.

Hi everyone,

I have been thinking of the price that i quoted and i would like to drop the price to $700 for a limited time. The reason for this is many of you have not seen my work first hand and i would like to change that. If the price is still out of range for any of you who may be interested i do offer payment options. Half or a quater down would get you in my queue.
Please feel free to PM me if interested as I will be happy to work something out with you.

Regards,

John

Hi Jean,

You are a riot my good man :).

Yes, they will come with a scabbard. Consider it the grand opening in my new and much larger shop.

Regards,

John

A very sleek looking piece for sure...

Hi Jean,

As you stated the color of bronze is bit more rich than brass. As far as my queue goes i have 3 custom orders that i am finishing up. I would say it would be about 30 day turnaround on these from order placed to shipment. The different woods that i posted are all really nice hardwoods and have more or less about the same consistency. I like to use really hard woods and soak them in teak oil, it works great and i havent had any cracking problems. If any problem would occur i would fix or replace it. Aesthetically speaking the choice from my list of hilt materials, well its really up to individual taste.

I am only offering this price for a limited time, unsure of how long i will offer it and it would depend on the response. My shop is now 2000 sq. feet and i am gearing up my production and output.

I hope that covers your questions.

Thanks for your interest.

John
