Very nice. Any chance in custom handle length? This one seems a bit short...

It is perfect size for average hand, I had it made to historical accurate size handle plus 5%. Most of dirks on the market have bit too big handles. I did not want to do same as the others do for US market with big modern size handles. I do assemble them myself however tang size is already set for this size, can make it shorter but not longer. It is very short run of 12 Units, I kept 1 to go along with my Basket Hilt and the other just in case (since no need to push them they are pointed enough to not need much effort) 10 units are for sale

The scabbard needs a chape imho. The leather won't contain that point if pressured.
I tried making scabbard tip from brass but only have round brass stock available at the moment. I do have a lathe but no grinder or milling machine at the moment. However scabbard is much longer the the blade so there is plenty of space to keep it safely in plus blade is restricted in any deeper movement by scabbard brass mouth
