Arkansas Toothpick Double Edge Dagger Design
 The Arkansas Toothpick is one of America’s most recognizable historical dagger styles — a long, narrow, double-edged blade famous for its exceptional thrusting power and dual-edge cutting performance. This modern interpretation stays true to the classic form while using premium materials for superior durability and edge retention. The symmetrical double-edge geometry allows clean cuts from either side and deep, controlled penetration, making it ideal for both display and practical outdoor use.

D2 Tool Steel Blade
The heart of this dagger is its high-performance D2 tool steel blade. D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel known for outstanding wear resistance and excellent edge retention. With approximately 1.5% carbon and 11–13% chromium, it offers semi-stainless properties — significantly better corrosion resistance than ordinary carbon steels while still delivering the toughness and sharpness expected from a quality tool steel. Hardened to 58–60 HRC, the blade holds a razor edge through demanding cutting and thrusting tasks. Simply wipe it dry after use and it will serve you reliably for years.

12-Inch Double-Edged Blade
At 12 inches (30.5 cm) long and 4 mm thick, the blade offers an ideal balance of reach, strength, and control. The double-edged grind runs the full length of the blade, creating two sharp cutting surfaces and a reinforced spearpoint tip optimized for penetration. Whether used for precise outdoor tasks or displayed as a collector’s piece, this long double-edge blade delivers both historical authenticity and modern performance.

Full Tang Construction
This Arkansas Toothpick dagger is built with a full tang design for maximum strength and durability. The steel runs the entire length of the handle, providing superior structural integrity compared to partial-tang knives. Full tang construction ensures the knife can handle heavy use without compromising safety or longevity — a critical feature for any serious fixed-blade dagger.

Ergonomic Rosewood Handle 
The 5.5-inch (14 cm) handle is crafted from premium rosewood, offering a warm, elegant appearance and a comfortable, secure grip. Rosewood is valued for its natural density, attractive grain patterns, and smooth feel in the hand. The ergonomic shape fits the hand naturally, reducing fatigue during extended use and giving excellent control whether held in a forward or reverse grip.

Premium Leather Sheath 
Each dagger comes with a high-quality leather sheath designed for secure carry and protection. The sheath protects the double-edged blade during storage and transport while complementing the classic aesthetic of the rosewood handle and D2 steel blade.

Handmade Quality
Every Arkansas Toothpick Double Edge Dagger is carefully handmade, ensuring attention to detail in the grind, finish, handle fit, and overall craftsmanship. The combination of D2 tool steel, full tang construction, rosewood handle, and leather sheath results in a knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.

Whether you are a knife collector seeking an authentic American classic, an outdoor enthusiast looking for a high-performance fixed blade, or someone who simply appreciates fine handmade craftsmanship, this Arkansas Toothpick Double Edge Dagger delivers lasting quality and distinctive style.
