Pharoh Athame

The Egyptian Pharoah was a person of both Heaven and Earth,
possessing earthly wealth in great abundance and believed to return to the Gods within the afterlife. This athame has been built in imitation of the sturdy, straight daggers perhaps used in ritual and life by the Pharoahs of ancient Egypt.
Crafted of stainless steel, the 7 3/4" blade is a stout 1 1/2" wide at its base, tapering slowly to a fine point. Behind this is, crafted of
metal and accented by molded plastic decoration, is a hefty hilt that fits comfortably in the hand with a largely smooth grip and detailed ornamental designs upon the crossguard and pommel. The result is an athame that appears as though it were born of an ancient Egypt
influenced by Rome; perhaps appearing in the days of Cleopatra herself.
The Pharoah Athame also comes with an ornate sheath, bound in ornate metal design and bodied in plastic so as to keep the entire piece from being too heavy on the hip even as it possesses a reassuring heft. The whole piece measures approximately 14" in length.
