"Mad Mahdi" Dagger

Well, sharpening is a phylosophical question - do you see your dagger as a weapon or as a historical memorabilia ?

I think most of the collectors do not sharpen their weapons (I do).

Hi Rivkin!

I see my Sudanese dagger as a weapon.I just got out the sharpening stone.

I put a very nice edge on it,but did not hurt the islamic inscriptions on the blade,the tip is still slightly snapped off but is less noticable,it looks great!

The reason I left the dip slighty dull is the tip protrudes from the sheath and I don't want to poke myself.

Thanks for the advice!
