This is Daniel Boone’s Damascus steel knife which during the American Revolution, Royal Governor Hamilton, in Detroit, ordered quantities from the Hundson Bay Company and gave them to the Indians in return for their attacking the Kentucky settlements of Boonesboro and Harrodsburg. During one of these sieges, Daniel Boone took a knife off an Indian and carried it for the rest of his life. This is an exact replica of that knife. The blade design is the same as a Scottish Dirk and Viking Sax from which the Scottish blade descended. It is a well proven design. 11 ½” X 1 ¼” X 3/16” pattern welded Damascus steel blade. Included is a leather covered rosewood belt scabbard brass mounted at the tip and the throat. This impressive knife is finished with riveted rosewood handles and brass guard. A nice accessory for Revolutionary War re-enactors. Mountain Men portrayers, or for collectors who want examples of early American memorabilia.

This is a great knife! I reenact the civil war as a Confederate and wanted a good hunting knife that would be more unique than the ubiquitious Bowie knife that everyone else carries. This knife fit the bill perfectly: unique high quality style and elegance and best of all it would be correct for the period! I'm particularly impressed with the quality of the scabbard!

Like I said last year-it's a fine knife for reenacting. Found it's weak spot this year though.While at Fort Erie had the knife slipped out of it's scabbard-there went my knife-gone. If you're using it as a prop make sure you attatch it securely to your scabbard. It's too expensive a knife to waste. Learn from my mistake. Barry
