A fixed blade dagger featuring a Hidden Tang construction, developed as an evolution of the wz.92, also known as "62 KS", which originated from the 62nd Special Company in Bolesławiec. In the early 1990s, soldiers from this unit contributed to designing an updated knife for Polish scouts and commandos. In contrast to the previous model, the wz.98 dagger omits a storage compartment in the handle, resulting in enhanced durability of the tang connection.
Equipped with a double-edged blade of dagger profile, the knife utilizes robust spring steel for exceptional resilience. The blade has undergone electroplated chrome coating, increasing its resistance to corrosion. The handle is crafted from oil-resistant rubber and features anti-slip grooves to secure the grip. For added safety, the steel cross guard effectively blocks the hand from sliding onto the blade. A large pommel at the end of the handle allows the user to employ it as a supplementary field tool.
Supplied with a plastic scabbard, the knife can be conveniently attached to a belt using the holster’s double loop system. The scabbard is also reinforced with a nylon cord wrap. A steel latch that secures into a rectangular slot in the cross guard prevents unintentional withdrawal of the knife. An additional mounting loop is incorporated at the base of the scabbard.

Received as a gift. The workmanship is of a high level, but the factory sharpness leaves a lot to be desired. However, I don't mind because apart from lying on the shelf, I don't foresee any other use for this dagger. Plus for the engraved eagle. Minus for the lack of any box.

Hello. Beautiful Polish dagger, perfect for collectors as well as fans of cold weapons. A very successful purchase. There was a slight issue with removing the dagger from the sheath, but it's enough to gently squeeze the metal clasp holding the dagger in place with pliers and everything is fine.
