PRIMITIVE FRONTIER KNIFE

Classic example of a frontier made rifleman's / fur trade knife. Forged from a file or rasp, this 6-1/2" clip-point knife is smooth and gray with no pitting with file teeth still visible. The 1-1/4" blade is locked into the bone handle with poured lead. The handle exhibits a pleasing yellow patina overall with some age cracks. The substantial heavy black leather scabbard appears to be original to the knife. It has a stitched seam up the back the two slits to accommodate a large belt. Overall length is 11-1/4." CONDITION: Very Good. Handle has no wiggle.

Item Dimensions: W/ holster: 12 - 1/2" L.
