    Description

    Confederate-Made Brass Hilt Bowie/ Fighting Knife. 16½" overall with an 11¾" blade exhibiting a clipped point, with a narrow flat ricasso and the lack of a lanyard loop at the pommel. This knife also is marked with a crude Roman numeral "XXIII" on the underside of the guard. This specimen is long believed to be a product of the Confederate States Armory at Keenansville, North Carolina and generally associated with use by mounted units. Very fine untouched condition, just a few chips on the cutting edge, minor. Again, very scarce and most desirable.

    We had a wonderful time in New York during the October 2013 Historical Manuscripts auction that featured my mother’s papers collected during her tenure as Martin Luther King, Jr.’s secretary. In fact, the entire experience from beginning to end has been a pleasure.
