Scottish Dirk, dated 1785
I was watching Kidnapped last night, admiring the dirks and remembered this example dated 1785 on the hard leather sheath. Overall sheathed length 46.3 cm with a 33.3 cm blade that becomes double-edged for the last 45%. Maybe a very rubbed crown and G on the blade versus overinterpreted corrosion.
