Overview

This dagger by John Young features a double edged mirror polished blade with .291" blade stock and 1.020" blade depth, hidden tang construction. The handle has stainless steel guard and butt with a Charoite grip. Comes with a zippered case. Excellent condition. #001 on the blade. Only one like this was ever made.

Charoite is a rare, translucent lavender to purple mineral that strictly is massive in nature (does not form individual crystals). It is found only in a single area in the Sakha Republic in Siberia. It has an unusual swirling, fibrous appearance and is sometimes chatoyant. Its appearance along with its rich coloration has led many to assume that it’s a synthetic mineral. In its rough form it’s fairly unattractive and it’s beauty isn’t apparent until polished.
