Scottish Dirk by Vince and Grace Evans

Several years ago my friend James Forman gave me a reproduction dirk. There was no provenance to go with it and ever since I have been trying to find out who made it and just this week, thanks to Dr. Glenn Osborne, I now know the maker. Vince Evans is an award winning bladesmith in Hawaii, he hand forges the blades and his wife Grace carves the grips. Vince also makes fabulous swords. Vince has a web site, Vince Evans, Bladesmith.
