medieval dagger

The Scottish dirk (also called highland dirk, in Scottish Gaelic, biodag) is a traditional and ceremonial side dagger of Scottish Highland regiment officials and possibly derived from the sixteenth century ballock.

The traditional Scottish dirk spread particularly in the second half of the seventeenth century, when it was used among the military during the Jacobite insurrection.

He was also a writer, patron, poet and humanist, as well as one of the most significant politicians of the Renaissance, both for having incarnated the ideal of the humanist prince, and for the very careful management of power.

A peculiar characteristic of Celtic swords was the handle in the form of "X", otherwise known as anthropomorphic handle. The arms of the X constituted the lower limbs (wrapped around the "strength" of the blade) and higher than a human male whose head stood in the spot usually occupied by the knob. In the oldest specimens (sixth century BC), the anthropomorphic shape was very strong, with the "arms" of the man-handle raised in a praying position, almost forming a trident.
