Fake vs real dirk.

For those that wear a dirk as part of your highland apparel, do you have a functional dirk with a sharpened edge or a mild steel display dirk that does not have an edge?

Honestly I don't know.

I have a British military-issued dirk made in the 1980s. I don't know how to tell if it's a "mild steel display dirk".

Here's a thread I did comparing it, a British-made MOD issue dirk, to an Indian-made copy:
