Blade length = 12 1/2"

Handle total length = 5"

Nice dirk !   :applaud

If it were mine, I'd make a minimal sheath that strapped it to the inside of my forearm (inside the sleeve).

That's OK Jack, with that dirk and your kilts, you can probably get a job as an extra on "Outlander" :applaud :applaud

Now that is a proper dirk, my friend. It should be proper attire no matter where you wear that kilt. Grats on a great looking blade.
