Blackside Phase 7 SDM Dagger Overview

The Blackside Phase 7 SDM Dagger is the next evolution of Blackside Customs’ debut fixed blade design—scaled up for greater presence, sharper execution, and premium materials chosen for serious collectors. From the profile to the finishing work, this build delivers a statement-level custom dagger that feels purposeful in hand and striking in a display.

Hand-Ground T.J. Marifone Blade in DLC Magnacut

At the center of the Blackside Phase 7 SDM Dagger is a custom hand-ground, light-reflecting Black DLC double-edge blade by T.J. Marifone. The blade is crafted from CPM Magnacut, a modern stainless steel known for its excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The DLC finish adds durability while keeping the look clean, dark, and tactical.

Double-Edge Geometry and Collector-Focused Fit & Finish

The Blackside Phase 7 SDM Dagger uses a symmetrical double-edge dagger profile that emphasizes balance, clean lines, and visual impact. Blackside pairs that geometry with titanium construction and premium MokuTi scales, which add depth, color, and contrast without losing the knife’s aggressive identity.

Custom detailing appears throughout the build, including patterned milled scale screws and a soft-lined sheath with a black camo Cerakoted finish. These touches reinforce Blackside Customs’ small-batch approach and the collector-grade standard behind each piece.
