This damascus dagger knife kit design is called the "Pygmy Dagger". It is a USA Made carbon steel damascus fixed blade knife blank that is hollow-ground and ready to build. This dagger blade blank model is small enough to "hide away", and will make a fantastic personal protection knife. It will also serve very well as a collectible gift project. This damascus dagger blade blank has a blade length of 2.625 inches and an overall length of 5.50 inches. Ground on both sides, the blade is 1.25 inches wide. This design features (2) 0.125 inch through-holes for handle construction (stainless steel pinstock included) with a 0.250 inch hole for an optional decorative center pin. The tang holes can be modified with ease to work with larger pinstock, or with threaded fasteners.
This version of the Pygmy Dagger is the combo kit. It comes with the Pygmy Dagger blade plus Curly Maple handle scales and stainless steel pinstock to simplify the completion process. This is a great project for a weekend knife making session. Spend some quality workshop time with this knife kit and enjoy the fun of custom knife making and customization.
