A MILITARY STYLE BOWIE KNIFE - C. HEINZ, SOUTH C
<B>A MILITARY STYLE BOWIE KNIFE - C. HEINZ, SOUTH CAROLINA.</B></I>This heavy Bowie knife was made at Columbia, South Carolina by the C. Heinz company and measures just over 12" in length. With an 8" dagger-like blade, the knife has a decidedly military look and feel, especially with the heavy rosewood handle and diamond-shaped rivet at the end. The arched crossguard adds to that look as does the double-stitched rich brown leather sheath fitted with a belt loop. This is a rare Southern-made Bowie knife that, even though in excellent condition, has seen considerable use.<I> From The William Turner Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Bats, Clubs, Sticks, Swords, Rif (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
