Rare Confederate naval dirk. 249 grams, 11" overall. Beautifully crafted and well-proportioned Confederate States naval dirk with crudely made brass scabbard, hand-carved bone handle with incised iron pommel cap and brass cross guard in the shape of an anchor indicating that it was made during the extremities of war. Excellent spear point blade made from a file. A very attractive artifact from an important time in US history.
