Description

This is an original Scythian iron dagger dating back to the Early Iron Age, a striking example of weaponry used by the nomadic warrior culture of the Scythians. The Scythians, a formidable and highly mobile people, dominated the Eurasian steppes from the 7th to 3rd century BC. Their craftsmanship in weapons reflects their fierce reputation and mastery in metalwork.

This dagger measures approximately 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) in total length, with a blade width of 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) at its widest point and a handle width of 2.2 inches (5.6 cm). The robust crossguard provides a glimpse into the practical design tailored for hand-to-hand combat.

Although corroded with age, the dagger retains its distinct shape, with the crossguard and blade still discernible. It is a testament to the Scythians’ skilled metallurgical techniques. This relic likely served as both a functional weapon and a status symbol for its owner.

Artifacts like this dagger are rare, providing a tangible connection to the Scythian culture and their impact on ancient warfare and trade. This piece is perfect for collectors of ancient artifacts or those with a deep interest in early nomadic cultures and their influence on history.
