Dudgeon

Postby David Myer » Wed Jul 29, 2015 6:18 am

Lovely word. We all know about high dudgeon, but what about a dudgeon dagger. My guess is that Goodword members will be thrilled to hear that it is also known as a bollocks dagger, for, as it turns out, obvious reasons. I have what can only be described as a 'bollocks steel' for sharpening knives. Let me know if you want a picture.
