I don't see the part where it's a dagger.
Awesome work nonetheless.
This looks great. Did you turn this on a lathe? I assume the piece is used in some kinda combat sport? It looks like it could be heavy drumstick

Yeah, I posted some in-progress pics yesterday, biggest lathe job I've had so far - it's used for HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts)

You’re welcome to come test it out on me. I could use a good noggin’ busting today.
Awesome. I was going to guess SCA but half remembered their gear is made of rattan. Your work looks great for it being the biggest job so far.
Intended as a rondel trainer in specific, or general dagger?
