Indian Trade Knife

Very nice high quality trade knife made in the USA. The hardened carbon steel blade is 7" long and 1" wide with a satin finish. Very sharp and ready for use. The 5" long handle is beech with three brass rivets and has been painted oxide red. The custom heavy leather sheath is cut and hand stitched here in the shop and are unstained as was typical. The leather will naturally darken with oiling and use over time. (Leather was rarely dyed or stained in the 18th century except for quality items such as book covers or gentleman's accessories.)
