Blades

WOW...WHAT A BEAUTY ! This Horstmann Foot Officer's Sword in the Original Leather Scabbard is as nice as we've had in ages....The sword has generous gold wash left on the entire hilt...the original sharkskin wrap and wire are intact and near mint. The blade is perfect and unsharpened....the etching remains strong and includes beautiful scrolls and military motif with cannons. The leather scabbard is completely original and flawless. There is not one weak spot anywhere which is almost unheard of today.....If you demand the finest Horstmann Line Officer's Sword available and one that you'll probably never have the need or opportunity to upgrade....It's here.....$2,250.00

This Schneider & Glassick is one of the rarest Confederate edged weapons to come down the pike in years. It's one of only two know examples of a Bowie/Dirk Dress Dagger clearly marked Schneider & Glassick.

The knife has a double edged spear point blade with a German silver & ivory handle and a German silver guard. It has a single die, one line line stamp on the guard as the other known has. The ivory handle has a script letter "g" inscribed on it.

Research indicates that the only time the firm Schneider & Glassick advertised cutlery, hunting knives, etc. was from February 1861, thru March 1861. The firm shut down in March of 1862.....Very Rare......$3,850.00

Here's a dandy Civil War Era dagger by the popular and very collectible Sheffield maker, Manson. The grip slabs are bone or ivory and pinned with four German silver pins. The spear point blade measures a lethal six inches.....the overall length is ten inches....the original sheath is in poor condition but it displays with the best of them....shows honest use. The knife is a gem and will enhance any serious Civil War Collection. I don't know who J. F. was but he had a good knife......$695.00

    This is a vicious looking side

 knife that has a sharp double sided 5-3/4" "toothpick" blade.  It's a 19th century hand forged knife

designed solely to kill an opponent.....the turned oak grip handle is solid with no cracks or chips and

rests on an iron ferrule  and iron cross guard......it's a lethal knife in excellent condition and could have

been carried in the boot by a  soldier from either side....a great display piece....$295.00

    Here's a fine IXL

G. Wostenholm & Son spear point side knife in it's original sheath.  This little gem is  9" overall and has

clearly stamped on both sides of the blade and the ricasso.  The grip handle has ivory slabs pinned to the tang

with four German silver pins.....the cross guard is also German silver.  This small but very  lethal weapon was

exported in large numbers to both sides during the Civil War.

of the sheath to complete a very attractive rig.....$1,295.00....REDUCED...$900.00
