Description
Description
Born from the shadows of World War II, the Sleeve Dagger—also known as the Bodkin or Nail Dagger—was developed by Britain’s Special Operations Executive (SOE) for covert missions requiring absolute discretion. History Knife & Tool brings this legendary design back to life in a historically faithful reproduction that honors the original in form, function, and detail.
Machined from a single piece of GCr15 bearing steel, the dagger preserves the iconic one-piece cylindrical construction of wartime originals. The triangular, three-sided ground blade, enhanced with hollow grooves, reflects authentic period geometry optimized for thrusting performance. A dark acid-washed finish delivers an aged, battle-worn appearance while adding protective durability.
The finely checkered grip with four circumferential grooves ensures secure control without sacrificing the dagger’s slim, low-profile profile. A traditional mushroom pommel with sling notch supports classic leather-loop carry for rapid access. Completing the package is an authentic brown leather sheath with a long strap and pin buckle, allowing period-correct concealed carry on the sleeve or leg—just as used by Allied operatives.
Faithful, functional, and steeped in history, the HKT Sleeve Dagger is a rare opportunity for collectors, historians, and reenactors to own a true piece of WWII covert heritage.
