#159 Writhen Parrying Dagger
To compliment our Writhen Rapier we have chosen to reproduce a
similarly styled parrying dagger from the Bashford & Dean collection in
Metropolitan Museum in New York. This decorative roping technique is an
excellent example of the renaissance craftsman combining function and form
in a weapon. This particular piece has a fullered blade with decorative
chiseling on the ricasso block. The grip is covered in twisted wire with turks
heads top and bottom.
Original circa 1580, German Bashford Dean Collection (29.157.17), Metropolitan Museum, New York.
