Cinquedea-Moran Style

Though this one isn't an exact duplicate of any of Bill's cinquedeas, it was definitely influenced by those few that he made. This is the first Bill Moran style of knife that I have made. I'm not sure why I decided on this style other than it required some forging techniques that I haven't done before and was a challenge. Moran thought that the cinquedea was the most difficult dagger design to make and I now know why.

This one has a blade of W1 steel with rosewood scales and brass furniture.





Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Gary

Beautiful work, I can see where that one would be challenging.

See some of my work.

Here's a Chuck Ward photo that shows the knife much better:
