18th Century German Dagger Pistol - Curassow - 42 cm

Where elegance meets edge—Kolser’s 18th Century German Dagger Pistol in Curassow finish invites you to step into a time of baroque courts, black powder duels, and ornate honour. Measuring 42 cm and adorned with silver-toned metal and faux-ivory detail, this decorative replica is more than just a showpiece—it’s a story forged in steel and symbolism.

In the late 1700s, hybrid weapons like dagger pistols were crafted not just for protection, but as status symbols worn by aristocrats, military officers, and nobility. The German dagger pistol, in particular, gained a reputation for its dramatic dual function: part thrusting blade, part flintlock firearm, both steeped in intimidation and ceremony. Kolser’s recreation pays tribute to this rare category of historical arms—where art and warfare intersect.

The highlight of this piece is undoubtedly the sculpted lion’s head grip—a bold representation of power, leadership, and fierce nobility. The lion was often used in Germanic heraldry to signify courage and prestige, and here, it takes pride of place atop the weapon’s handle, watching over the dagger like a guardian of its legacy.

Crafted with durable alloy metals and a resin that faithfully mimics aged ivory or wood, this piece is built to last, whether displayed in a collection cabinet or mounted in a study, office, or parlour. The faux-ivory grip and silver-toned barrel are detailed with ornate engravings, reminiscent of the elaborate ironwork popular during the European Enlightenment and early romantic military eras.

Though this replica is non-functional, its attention to detail and realistic proportions make it a conversation-starting centrepiece for any display. Whether you're a historical arms collector, interior design enthusiast, or looking to add a regal touch to your décor, the Kolser 18th Century German Dagger Pistol delivers with timeless sophistication.

Ideal for collectors of antique-style weapons, historical décor enthusiasts, or anyone with a love for baroque and renaissance aesthetics, this dagger pistol replica offers a dramatic way to honour the elegance of old-world weaponry.
