<B><BR>A Confederate Bowie 'D-Guard' Fighting Knife Captured By Union Army Private Samuel AM. Dowden.</B></I><BR> Samuel M. Dowden fought with the Pennsylvania infantry during the Civil War, taking home this souvenir - an excellent example of a Confederate 'D-Guard' fighting knife. The weapon descended through the Dowden family with the story being that the young private took it from a dead Rebel soldier.<BR>Measuring 15 1/2 inches overall with a 10 3/4 inch blade, this attractive D-Guard has a clip point of forged steel and a standard 'broomhandle' grip. Two photographs including a tintype and a later portrait of Dowden accompany the knife, all three items being in good condition.<BR>Condition: The blade of the knife has moderate surface pitting with a nice, even dark gray patina.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Requires 3rd Party Shipping (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
