Large Etched Blade W. Nash Sheffield "Gold Hunters American Bowie" Knife with Sheath

"W NASH/SHEFFIELD" marked on the left ricasso, 14 3/4" OAL, 9 7/8" clip point blade etched on the left with an eagle, floral motifs and "Gold Hunters Knife/AMERICAN BOWIE", German silver oval guard, smooth antique ivory grips with an escutcheon on the left inscribed "T-A1863", and a folding corkscrew fitted in the spine of the hilt. Includes a alligator skin style scabbard with German silver fittings. Very good, the blade mostly bright grey patina with a light speckling of brown, a few minor nicks in the edge, and crisp etching. The grip scales have a few hairline age cracks and otherwise minimal handling evidence. Scabbard is fine with some mild wear.
