Once upon a time AL Mar and Bill Harsey made a dagger.
 

Let me know if anyone else had ever seen one of these in the wild. Also let me know if the quality on these photos are bad and I can try to re-upload.

Cool. And your photos are fine.

Thanks.

Photos are fine.

Blade looks good.

But the handle looks like it would get slick when covered in blood.

I would maybe make the handle thicker in the middle,

add some circumferential ridges/grooves.


And it really needs a 550 cord wrist strap through that hole in the hilt.



Well, since it really isn't a very good knife, I see why it didn't go into production.

I'll take it off your hands for $50.00, ok?

Handle looks like linen micarta. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to confirm if it gets slick. I might keep this one unused for a while longer. After talking to Bill a bit, blade is like 154 CM this was most likely prior to him using ATS-34. I'm guessing there are some kids out there finding their parents or grandparents "fancy letter opener" as these get passed down.

The new ones he designed for Spartan picked up that wider belly and pommel, something about folks wanting the ability to pull them back out after poking them in something.

I think it's worth at least $75.

This knife was never intended for production. It was built for a very specific ttype of carry.
