A knife with quotes from antiquity, as a model from the Renaissance for a modern dagger.</ h4>
The Renaissance was an epoch marked by ideals of beauty. Oriented to the classical world of Greeks and Romans.
The testicle dagger, which was still widespread in the Middle Ages, attracted attention. The egg shapes plastically applied to the end of the handle are clear.
In the Renaissance people think back to antiquity and the then ubiquitous disc dagger. The discs were placed in the same way as on the testicle dagger.
But they were symbols of strength, the sun and masculinity. The Renaissance man of the world shows masculinity and status through stuffed Jerkins, tight pantyhose with a pronounced jockstrap (codpiece).
Rings were worn over the glove. A dagger at the hip was essential. No man, no matter what social class, went his way without a dagger. The more magnificent the dagger, the more important its bearer.
Nils Jacobsen has hand-forged several fantastic damask blades exclusively for the knife manufacturer TYPEMYKNIFE.
The Renaissance dagger is a classic symmetrical double-edged dagger made of wild damask. 112 Layers and a hardness of 60°HRC characterize this beautiful blade.
The ferrule is forged in silver and finished with a solid sheet of silver as a guard. The hilt is made of fine silver with pits etched into it.
The resulting indentations are blackened using the sulfiding process and represent a floral, antique pattern. The cover plates are made of thick camel bone discs.
The center of the handle is decorated on both sides by a golden Christian cross, in the middle of which a faceted aquamarine gemstone is set.
The end of the handle forms a shell shape engraved in 925 sterling silver, with two circular discs emblazoned on the sides like pricked-up ears.
In the middle of the curved discs, which are decorated with 750/ooo rich yellow gold, there is a Amethyst Cabuchon set in the center of a gold disc.
Based on ancient and medieval models, a knife was created in the spirit of the past. In technology and design a dagger like from the Renaissance. Created in the twentieth century.
