Seffield Bowie 'California Knife'
Description: RARE CALIFORNIA BOWIE KNIFE. Sheffield Bowie with finely etched 3″ panel “CALIFORNIA KNIFE”. The maker is marked on ricasso “I PREFER/WF JACKSON/SHEFFIELD”. This knife measures 13″ overall with the blade just over 8-1/2″, over 1-1/2″ wide and over 1/4″ thick with a most unusual 3-1/4″ sharpened false edge and deeply cut notch in top of blade behind false edge. Norm Flayderman in his book, The Bowie Knife Unsheathing an American Legend, shows same blade form with notch with another California motif “Good as gold”. Mr. Flayderman also had in his personal collection an identical California knife, though not maker marked. This knife is very good overall with gray/bright blade. Etched panel is excellent in deep relief and can be seen in photos. Maker mark is only partially visable as can be seen in photos from either old cleaning or light stamping. Solid brass grip has two wood slabs one with an old period repair. Rosewood handles are retained by three large silver plated brass central pins and five perimeter brass pins that were once silver plated also. SOLD |
