Wedding, dress daggers, frankly you should be just going with some stainless wallhangers, if its gonna be hanging or thrust through belts. And unless the other grooms have particular love of blades they are unlikely to have and appreciation of carbon functionals ............ plus stainless hangers LOOK GREAT (you just wish it magically became full length tang, peened and 1095 high carbon) .............. Plus they would be well within the price range ............ and your running outta time, dont forget ordering and delivering and you gotta ensure they look good on them like a jacket, vest or tie etc.

Sharpen it yourself. Indeed... He has no weapons and has never sharpened anything, so I would have to sharpen 5 daggers, for free... not something I would look forward to. Erm... I personally would go for blunt weapons at the wedding party People getting drunk, showing of their cool daggers, accidents are likely to happen. It can always be sharpened after with for example the ac sharp, sharp windlass swords/daggers come with a secondary bevel anyway right? Edit; you could give him an ac sharp as a wedding present ;D

I talked to him about that... but he was very adament, since they are not only part of the attire but also the wedding present, that they be good functiona peices as well, not just look good. I have a MILLION options if I just wanted them to look good... Ichiban: Doh, figures. Most of the good looking blades that claim to be functional in this price range have been Deepeeka. Brother: I spotted that yesterday as well. I am not a big fan of that style of dagger, but I sent the info to him because it does fit the time period he is shooting for, and was they type of dagger you might find nobles waring at a function such as this. Thanks.

He didn't like Stiletto's... but that Temple Dagger might be an option. Thanks.

So how 'bout an update Shadow. No update yet... have talked to a few people 'behind the scenes' as it were... almost had a selection made, but hit a bump in the road. Still more then willing to hear suggestions.

Qama's nice; he doesn't need to know it isn't Medieval in period. lol
What's he plan on doing with it? I get the impression he's going to be looking at it more than anything else...why not go with the Deepeeka?
