Item Description: Translate description

After the United States’ victory in the Spanish-American War, the US gained Guam, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines as territories, and the US Army faced a grueling 15 year campaign to quell uprisings in the Philippine Islands from 1899-1913. This Antique 1900s Philippine Insurrection Native Warrior Bolo Sword is in Good Condition, with some rounding to the blade tip, two chips in the upper blade edge, some sharpening and scattered nicking to the blade edge, some cleaning, scratching, pitting, and patina at each side of the blade, moderate patina to the guard, ferrule, and pommel, a deep vertical crack running the length of the inner left side of the handle, and with some overall age wear evident. Most interestingly, it features a once bright 20 3/4” slightly upswept drop point blade, sports a well figured steel “S” guard, with the bottom end curving down nicely to protect the user’s hand, and boasts an elegant greenish brown hardwood handle. It bears a darkened brass ferrule and pommel, exhibits an old inventory tag hand marked “War Bolo / Luzon 1900” still tied around the upper handle, and is a fine example of a rare, original Antique 1900s Philippine Insurrection Native Warrior Bolo Sword. No scabbard included. Lastly, this bolo sword comes directly from the personal collection of renowned US military firearms author and historian Bruce Canfield, and a signed letter of authenticity stating as such will accompany this piece.
