Handmade D2 Steel Dagger with Micarta Handle

Precise | Relentless | Built Without Compromise

This handcrafted combat dagger is the definition of purposeful design. A long double edge spear point blade in satin-finished D2 steel, a black striped Micarta handle wrapped in steel wire, a steel crossguard and pommel, every element chosen for function first and beauty second. The result is a knife that looks like it means business because it does.

The Blade — Double Edge Spear Point
The spear point is the purest dagger geometry ever devised. Both edges taper with perfect symmetry to a needle-sharp centred tip creating a blade optimised for piercing, thrusting, and precise cutting from either direction with equal authority.

At 12 inches this blade commands serious reach. The satin finish on the high-chromium D2 steel is deliberately understated, letting the geometry and the grind quality speak for themselves rather than hiding behind a polished mirror.

Two working edges with intentional asymmetric sharpness:

• Primary edge — razor sharp, optimised for slicing and cutting performance
• Secondary edge — moderately sharp, providing controlled reverse-side utility without full razor aggression

The Steel — D2 High Carbon High Chromium
D2 earns its reputation by delivering where other steels compromise. With 1.5% carbon content and chromium levels between 11 and 13%, it achieves a balance that most steels cannot genuine toughness alongside outstanding edge-holding capability.

Brought to 58–60 HRC through careful heat treatment, this blade offers:

• Long-lasting sharpness that holds through hard, sustained cutting work
• Wear resistance that keeps both edges intact through extended field use
• Adequate toughness to handle impact without fracturing
• Semi-stainless behaviour — far better corrosion resistance than plain carbon steel, requiring only minimal maintenance

Keeping D2 at its best: Wipe clean after use, store dry, apply a thin coat of oil
periodically. Simple care that rewards you with decades of performance.

Full Tang — Blade to Pommel in One Piece
On a 12 inch double edge combat dagger, structural integrity is everything. The D2 steel on this knife travels uninterrupted from the blade tip through the crossguard and the full length of the Micarta handle to the steel pommel cap. No joints. No weak points. One piece of steel from end to end.

The Handle — Black Striped Micarta with Steel Wire and Silver Fittings
Black striped Micarta is among the most capable handle materials ever developed for serious working knives. Created by compressing layers of fabric or linen in resin under high pressure, Micarta delivers:

• Exceptional grip in all conditions — wet, cold, dry, or under pressure
• Complete immunity to moisture, temperature extremes, and prolonged outdoor exposure
• A surface that improves with use as it develops a slight texture patina
• Zero risk of cracking, warping, or swelling regardless of environment

The striped pattern in the black Micarta creates subtle visual depth dark and darker tones alternating through the handle in a way that is sophisticated without being decorative. Steel wire wrapping at key points along the handle adds grip security and a precise, tactical aesthetic.

The silver steel crossguard provides complete hand protection during hard use and gives the dagger a classic, authoritative profile. The matching silver steel pommel cap completes the full tang and adds rearward balance weight.

The Sheath — Brown Tactical Leather with D-Ring
A brown leather tactical sheath with multiple snap button carry points, D-ring attachment, and full blade coverage is included with every knife. Built for secure carry of a 12 inch double edge blade in field conditions — not just for display.
