The lot features a collection of four early Northern Plains Native American Indian trade knives, originating from the 19th Century. These 1800’s knives includes the following: The largest knife shows a hardwood, likely walnut or rosewood, two grip scales which are held together with old copper rivets and show an acorn carved guard / bolster that was likely adorned with poured pewter which has been lost (unmarked); the next length down in size is the knife marked “Russell Green River Works” with the diamond hallmark, the blade is ground to a skinning edge and the grip is a one piece hardwood grip held together with metal pins, likely an earlier example; next down in size is the knife marked “I. WILSON SYCAMORE ST. SHEFFIELD, ENGLAND” with the correct accompanying diamond and clover like hallmarks, an early example of trade knife with wide bowie like shorter blade, two piece grip with metal studs in poor condition being held together with a zip-tie; and lastly is the short trade knife with pointed blade, two piece grip scales held together with copper rivets (unmarked). The largest knife measures 12.75”L and the shortest is 7.75”L. These range from average to poor condition.
