    Description

    Native American used bowie knife and original sheath. Knife has a 6 inch heavy carbon blade and handle is stag or elkhorn. The sheath is leather with brass studs and almost black from age. It had fringes all around at one time now but many have torn off as they have gotten fragile over the years. It is well worn and used and the knife slides in like a glove. The remaining fringes are very delicate and shouldn't be touched or handled.It can't be seen well with the naked eye because it's small and well worn, but on the front side of the guard are initials of SB and a date of 1862 formed by a series of very small dots. You really have to look for it, but it's there.
    I bought this from a SD estate in 2011.
    There are a ton of fake knives being sold on ebay and mostly by the same group of sellers.And perfect beaded sheaths to go with them all being sold as antique. This is the real thing and I will guarantee it  for life.
    Thanks and Good Luck
