Vintage and rare Western 12 hunting knife #L46-8, with original sheath, in likely unused condition. The 8 blade is in excellent condition, as shown, with minimal clouding or surface marks from storage. The tang has some slight rust on both top and bottom, which I did not attempt to clean. The leather handle is in good shape, but could probably use some oil/TLC. The brass guard has some light marks from storage but is overall in nice condition.
No real scratches or scuffs anywhere that I could see. The sheath is in near-perfect condition - stored in a dry area so no mold or other smells/issues. Overall just a beautiful knife in amazing vintage condition. The item "Vintage Rare Western L46-8 12 Bowie Hunting Knife with Original Sheath" is in sale since Sunday, December 2, 2018.
