Picked up this dagger recently, I was wondering if anyone recognizes the model. Know anything about it? Made by Windlass Steelcrafts. If anyone is gonna know anything it's going to be you all!

Yes it's a prototype. I have the same one with a ivory micarta grip. I actually bid on that one too but really didn't need another. I got mine from Bruce Brookhart. It was on his site about 5 years ago, when he was selling off a lot of his Windlass and other stuff and he had it advertised as a prototype.

Do you have any idea of the steel it is made from? Is yours sharp? Would you post a picture of your prototype?

I have a sheath just like yours.

Killer! I really like the bone on there, has yours been sharpened? I am on the fence about pulling out the belt sander or just leaving it alone. What is your opinion?

Mine is sharp but I haven't cut with it. If you were keeping it to resell and had paper documentation of it being a prototype, I'd say don't sharpen. Without documentation, sharpen it and just have some fun or use it as a large camp knife.
