Hand Made Bowie Knife Wooden Grip Studded with Turquoise

Beautiful large hand made bowie knife with a carved wooden grip studded with small pieces of turquoise. The knife blade is either made from a very large file, or has been made to look as if it has, with cross-hatched pattern on one side, and the look of a rasp on the other, but beautifully shaped and polished. There is a brand on the ricasso resembling a C superimposed on a 2. The guard is copper. The sheath is also hand made, and is marked Harold J. Ryan Leather Works, Diamond, Illinois. This is a superbly balanced knife, clearly made by a master. Size: 13 1/2 inches long overall, with an 8 3/4 inch long blade. Processing and shipping within the continental U.S. $30.00 plus 1.5% replacement cost insurance. Discounts given on combined lot shipping.
