    Description

    Straight from an estate sale in Kentucky comes this Rare 1861 Civil War Confederate Bowie Knife ~ W. J. McElroy ~ Macon, Georgia CSA. The knife is in good condition and has a wonderful vintage patina. The knife measures 15 3/16” long and the blade itself measures 10” long. So, this is a large and impressive knife. One side of the blade is marked: W. J. McElroy 1861 and the other side: C.S.A. Macon, Georgia. One side of the handle does have a tight crack, nothing serious at all. There is something very unusual about this Bowie knife, that being that 5 inches of the top edge of the blade is sharpened. Both edges are razor sharp. This is truly an awesome piece and will make a great addition to any collection. Buyer pays shipping.
