This heavy bolo knife features a thick steel blade with a curved edge and a dark finish. The hilt has two-piece wooden grips secured by steel bolts. The blade shows minor surface wear and sharpening marks. Manufactured by Plumb in 1917, this bolo knife was issued to US Army forces during the First World War. It was used by machine gun crews to clear brush and foliage for firing positions. The blade is stamped with the Plumb Philadelphia maker mark and the model year. It is accompanied by its original 1918 leather sheath.
