Hi there!
Want to share with you new Roman dagger from my smithy – custom made Pugio (based on original from the Solingen Museum), brass fittings, walnut-tree used for hilt & scabbard-core (+ black leather). Overall length: 46 cm, blade: 30,5 cm, blade-width: 6 cm (by the hilt). Really enjoyed making this one! :-)

That looks very nice. Steel looks interesting too, what did you use for the blade?
