A Bollocks Dagger is perfect for Tudor or medieval reenactors. It is often seen in partnership with a "Kidney style" pouch, as the balls on the handle fit perfectly within the leather opening.
This large dagger features a unique handle featuring two "balls". Each handle is unique, as the wood is treated to show the natural grain and colour. I have included several photos that show a good range of handle variation for you to choose from. You can choose from three variations listed: Lots of Patterning may include large sections of light coloured wood, Some Patterning may have one light coloured ball, Solid Colour means completely brown.
This dagger comes with it's own matching leather sheath. This item is sold as re-enactment gear and is unsharpened stainless steel. Caution should always be used when handling knives, daggers or swords.

According to Wikipedia "The dagger was popular in Scandinavia, Flanders, Wales, Scotland and England between the 13th and 18th centuries, in particular the Tudor period. Within Britain the bollock dagger was commonly carried, including by Border Reivers, as a backup for the lance and the sword. Many such weapons were found aboard the wreck of the Mary Rose."
