Item Details

Description

[CIVIL WAR]. Wragg & Sons gold paneled XLNT Bowie knife.

Wragg & Sons 8 in. clip point Bowie knife with superb etched blade, ca 1860s. Ricasso with maker's cartouche "Wragg & Sons / XLNT / Furnace Hill / Sheffield." 13 in. overall length. German silver hilt with two piece horn grips and long oval guard. Accompanied by embossed morocca sheath with the same intricate horseman-themed design on both sides of the scabbard.

Right side of the polished clip point blade without adornment, while the opposite side features an elaborately etched and gold washed panel with patriotic motifs. At center of the blade is a traditional eagle and shield emblem with crossed flags and a series of ribands. Extending from the tip to the ricasso the ribands read: "America / The Land of Freedom," "The True Patriots / Self Defender," and "Protected / By Her Brave / Volunteers." A small riband surmounting the head of the eagle bears the maker's name "Wragg & Sons XLNT."

Slight wear to the gold wash. Minor blemishes and small areas of rust on right side of polished blade. Small chips on both sides of horn grips and some wear to scabbard. Generally good condition overall.
