Hand-Engraved Oriental Knife with Dragon Scrimshaw – Hollow Ground Blade by “VM”

Authentic. Mysterious. Sharply Made.
This oriental-style knife carries no backstory, but it doesn’t need one. It speaks for itself. From the first look, it’s clear that this piece was crafted by hand, not mass-produced. The initials “VM” are the only clue to its maker—a signature etched into the 5 3/8-inch hollow-ground blade that’s razor-sharp on both sides.

Its most striking feature? The scrimshaw design of a horned dragon, carved and coloured by hand into pale, polished wood scales. These are fitted snugly over a well-executed tapered tang, offering both balance and durability.

The spine is finished with a clean scallop cut near the hilt, adding a functional and aesthetic edge. Finished off with a full grain leather belt sheath, this knife is ready for display or use.

Why choose this hand-engraved oriental knife with dragon scrimshaw?
– Hand-engraved scrimshaw dragon adds striking detail
– Hollow-ground blade delivers a razor-sharp edge
– Hardwood scales over a full tapered tang for solid grip
– Unique oriental styling with scalloped spine detail
– Comes with a full grain high-quality leather sheath

This hand-engraved oriental knife with dragon scrimshaw is a one-off piece with true character—and sharp where it counts.
