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.
