Orendolkh, Shaybendolkh & Nirendolkh


Many people gave to a dagger the courage status. The most known dagger in the late Middle Ages was Nirendolkh (a dagger having "kidneys"). On the handle of this two-edged dagger having four sides, there were 2 outgrowths in the form of tubers which promoted such name, especially, in the states speaking German. In the Anglo-Saxon territory it was called by Ballock-Dagger that in transfer means "a dagger with eggs". This name appeared as a result of a method of the carrying popular in 14-15 centuries, and is concrete: vertically, at the level of a stomach, therefore, that a sheath was between feet, and the handle rose up. Rather frank and very correct fallichesky symbol.

The Shaybendolkh (a dagger having a washer). This dagger was created in the 14th century, received the name by means of 2 disks from the iron, strengthened on both terminations of the handle, providing protection of a hand. If the owner of this dagger closed the hand having protection by means of a latny mitten, on the handle, plates carried out opening overlapping in a fist, and at once the bottom plate represented the correct support of other hand by means of what the chance to make more essential blow was given and to spoil protection of the rival. Knights kept these daggers in a beautiful sheath. The Shaybendolkh didn't undergo fashion of 14-15 centuries and kept initial appearance. The blade of this dagger has various forms: starting from a pricking tetrahedron and ending a two-edged dagger. The dagger having a blade with four sides, was called as Misericordia (in a translation from Latin - "mercy") as it was often applied to "disposal" of tortures of rivals. Certainly, this dagger didn't hinder battle with the big rival.




The Orendolkh (a dagger having ears). It is called so not because rushed behind an ear or because it carried out a kovyryaniye in an ear and not because of the reason of cutting of ears (likely the last nevertheless was). He inherited a name by means of 2 original plates which were attached to the handle instead of a navershiya. The state which has created this dagger which was popular in Western Europe in the 14th century, it is possible to call Spain applying this type of weapon since the 13th century. Since the beginning of the 15th eyelid this magnificent dagger began to apply in Italy, and most of all it was popular on a place which was slightly to the north of the Alps.
