Militia Templi Dagger

The Militia Templi Dagger, inspired by the Order of Aviz, embodies the strength and devotion of medieval Templar knights. Known for their courage and discipline, these warrior monks carried daggers as their final safeguard—a weapon drawn only when swords could no longer serve. The Templar dagger was designed for precision in close combat, with a double-edged blade ideal for thrusting and defense. Beyond the battlefield, it was a practical companion used for cutting, carving, and the daily tasks of a knight on campaign.

A Legacy of the Order of Aviz

The Order of Aviz was established in 1128 under the patronage of Theresa, Countess of Portugal. Emerging from the same Crusader tradition as the Knights Templar, the order combined martial skill with spiritual dedication, defending the faith across the Iberian Peninsula. The Militia Templi Dagger reflects this sacred heritage, blending function and symbolism into a weapon worthy of those who swore vows of courage and honor. Its design evokes the medieval daggers carried by knights who bore both the cross and the sword in service to God and king.
