Here are a pair of daggers that I shipped off to a customer today. I forged both blades from ATS-34 steel. The grips are of black walnut and cherry. Fittings are brass.

Nice looking - what's the third one with the black grips? I didn't see it on your site.

I believe that it's a dagger from Ben's new Elite Line.

Ben, well there you go again, one beauty after another. Every time I think I know what I want next from Forged In Time you come up with something new & tantalizing. You've got to be the most underrated maker out there.
Excellent work as usual.
Cheers, Jon

Thanks! I didn't think to look under that category. Good looking dagger.

Thanks Aaron and Jon.
Yep, you got it right Jon and it is very kind of you to shower me with such praise.
I'm going to be further expanding the Elite Line over the next few months; the reaction in both praise and sales has been excellent. I've got many projects in progress in addition to my orders and things are starting to come to fruition. I'm currently working on a companion dagger for the Godwin Longsword as well as a complex blade geometry rondel.
