Span-Am War Collins No. 1005 Green Horn Bolo Knife & Leather Scabbard : $349.00
This knife was purchased by my parents at an estate sale in Hampton, VA about 50 years ago. Other than that, I do not know anything more about the history of this beautiful Collins bolo knife. I am not an expert, and any knowledge about this knife was scoured from internet sources. This model was produced around the time of the Spanish-American War. It has the \"Legitimus Collins & Co\" stamp as well as tooling on the sheath. The belt loop and sheath are dry, but there are no splits. The sheath also has \" CO C\" , followed by \"8\" embossed on the sheath. The letter \"A\" was carved into the horn handle. The handle has 4 rivets.The blade itself is 15.5\" long. There is some surface rust, but no pitting on the blade. This is a very nice example of an amazing military knife. Thank you for looking! Please contact me if you would like more photos.
