Greeetings,

Here's an past auction posting of a bowie by a fellow of the same name who was reportedly working in Sheffield.

Kevin , thank you.  I missed that when looking for info.     that would date the knife between 1845-1854.

Thanks again Jim

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
