Description
Georgia Arsenal “Type II” D-guard Bowie knife that measures an impressive ~22 inches overall (blade length is ~17 inches). A domestic southern product likely made by a local metalsmith, the knife features a hand-carved wood grip and forged-iron guard. A nearly identical example that belonged to a Confederate soldier in the 26th North Carolina Infantry is shown in “Confederate Bowie Knives” (2013). One of the finest examples known.
Formerly in the Kevin Hoffman collection.
