Hi,
There doesn't seem to be much interest in these rather scarce knives. I'm not really surprised as there is not many about and not much to go on regarding information on the internet or otherwise. I have added a few links to sold Eunjangdo from respected dealers for information and comparison. Regards, Norman. https://www.runjeetsingh.com/inventory/294/silver_knife https://www.mandarinmansion.com/item...e-or-eunjangdo https://www.mandarinmansion.com/item...rean-eunjangdo |

I have an interest in these little knives but can add only knowledge from others, see here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ight=Eunjangdo

Hi Detlef,
Thanks for your input on this. I think all that can be said about these knives is included in both this thread and your thread. There seems to be a paucity of information re Korean arms and armour in all of its forms so I guess any info is a plus. My Regards, Norman. |

Yes, I agree completely with you. These small knives are very nice. And there is not much documented about Korean blades. Regards, Detlef |

I really like these too. Here's a pic of one I've had for while.
I found an informative post on Korean silver a few years ago when I was researching it. Probably worth a share as information on these is so scarce. https://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewt...32af4112dc339d |

Thanks for posting your Eunjangdo. It's very nice and obviously a more upmarket version than mine with the gold highlights. Information on these is really scarce so the link you've provided is a really great addition. On another note, connected but different, I came across some of my grandmothers bits and pieces recently and in amongst them was a large hatpin. I wondered if these long and very pointy hatpins were ever used in a similar fashion to Eunjangdo re self defence. I found the following links quite informative.
