Two Tanto Blades With Webbing and Leather Sheaths. 21263. - 21263 The Tanto blade history goes back all the way to 12th century feudal Japan, to be specific. Then and there, samurai carried two swords for combat, one long and one short. The latter was known as the tant!3; (which translates to "short sword" or "dagger"). The tant!3; that samurai wielded were different from tanto knives you'll see today though; they maintained a continuous edge that curved near the tip like some straight back pocket knives do. The Texas-based knife manufacturer Cold Steel gets credit for introducing the sharp angle into the blade belly, sometimes referred to as an American tanto, in the early 1980s. The black model has a 14 ½ cm Stainless Steel blade (28 ½ cm overall) and steel grip with diamond pattern and integrated strap hole. The steel ricasso has a minor mark which is negligible. The black webbing sheath has an integrated belt hoop and straps for combat equipment attachment. The other has an 11 cm Stainless Steel blade (21 cm overall) and a rubber grip with diamond pattern and integrated strap hole in the brass coloured pommel. It has a brass coloured ricasso below the grip. The thick black leather sheath has a double integrated belt hoop to the rear with a Velcro holder. Both blade and sheath are in very nice condition. The price is for the two blades and includes UK delivery. 21263. (Fighting Knives) £225.00 |

*MINT*HORSE HEAD POMMEL*English 'Fred James' ‘James & Lowe’ Sheffield Made Hunter’s Companion 'Land Of The Free Home Of The Brave ' Bowie Knife With Etched Blade, Stag Antler hilt With Brass Horse Head Pommel & Brass mounted Leather Scabbard. Sn 21334 - 21334 Before his death in 1986 Fred James was Sheffield's best known Bowie Knife maker. Fred James worked for George Wostenholm the famous Sheffield England knife maker who made many of the original Bowie Knives that were exported to the United States during the mid 19th century. When Wostenholm closed its doors Fred apparently helped himself to many of the 19th century patterns, dies and stamps of his previous employer, and went into the business in the early 1970’s of making Bowie Knives himself. The examples of his work that were unmarked found their way into the “antique” arms dealers in the U.K., especially London. Many U.S. knife collectors were also fooled early on thinking that they were buying authentic 1850’s era Bowie Knives . Fred made/assembled knives with his wife Ivy, and for a while also had a Sandy Lowe who worked along with him. Some of his knives were also marked correctly Fred James, or James & Lowe. Today those Bowies stamped with either of these marks are very collectible in their own right and have a ready market among knife collectors (see pages 214-215 of The Sheffield Knife Book By Tweedale). This James & Lowe Sheffield made Bowie Knife & scabbard are in near mint condition. The knife Stag Antler hilt With Brass Horse Head Pommel. It has an ornate brass finger guard and the 9 ¾” Bowie blade is polished steel with scalloped decoration on the back edge (16 ¼” overall). The blade is 2” at its widest and is 6mm thick.

The blade also has the American Eagle and ‘Hunter’s Companion’. The ricasso is stamped "James & Lowe Sheffield". The scabbard is brown leather with gold foliate decoration and brass throat mount and chape. The throat mount has a frog locket. The price for this desirable Bowie includes UK delivery.
