Description

Designed by legendary knifemaker Gil Hibben, the Shadow Dagger features a double-edged 420J2 stainless blade with a matte-black oxide coating for a menacing aesthetic. The stacked leather washer grip provides secure handling, and the cast metal guard and pommel are finished in antiqued bronze. A statement piece for fantasy blade collectors.

Shadow and Steel

Mount the Shadow Dagger on a dark oak display board and let the matte-black blade absorb the room’s light—only the antiqued bronze guard and pommel catch the eye, framing the leather grip in a dramatic silhouette.

Gil Hibben’s vision transforms a blade into a sculptural statement.

The Hibben Legacy

Gil Hibben has designed knives for film, military, and collectors for over five decades, earning the title of Master Bladesmith from the American Bladesmith Society.

The stacked leather washer grip is a hallmark of his designs—each washer is cut, dipped in resin, and compressed under tons of pressure to form a grip that is both warm to the touch and impervious to moisture.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
