Description: Antique ca.1840's spearpoint Bowie knife by the Sheffield maker, James Westa 10&1/2” Long Overall. This is a Gold-Rush Era pre-Civil War Bowie knife. The 6” Blade is stamped on the Blade (JAMES WESTA LORD ST. SHEFFIELD). The German Silver Guard and Shield are V/Good & Tight, The Shield has a Very Faint Abstract engraving of what looks like some kind of a Bird getting ready to have a Snake for dinner, This can be easily buffed out if wanted but I like things Original. The Beautiful Genuine Ivory Mellow-Yellow Grips are Excellent with No cracks or damage, The Original Paste-board Scabbard is in poor condition, it has a Nickel-silver Throat and the Tip is a Later steel replacement and the Button is loose. Condition: This antique 1840's spearpoint Bowie knife is in V/Good+ Condition for its age. The blade has some pitting, staining and sharping wheel marks. The sheath is in poor condition condition with just some wear of the leather only at the very tip............. Lower 48 Insured shipping $35.00 SOLD |
