This Arkansas Toothpick is new in the box, however there are some marks on the blade and handle, I think these were/are made somewhere different and the quality is a bit lower than what you normally think of for Cold Steel. That being said, it is an awesome looking knife (small sword!) and displays very well! A great addition to a collection!Thanks for looking and please look at my other items, there are more Cold Steel knives, possibly some beautiful leather goods, other knives, and just no telling what else I find and list here on !! Thanks again, Danny
Description:The main competition to the Bowie knife from the late 1830's to the period just after the Civil War was the Arkansas Toothpick. The Arkansas Toothpick got its namesake as an ironic reference to the coarse, rough and tumble culture that populated the lowlands of Arkansas and the Mississippi delta in the mid 19th century. Travelling journalists from Europe often made up stories about how they commonly saw men and old boys picking their teeth with giant knives that they dubbed Arkansas Toothpicks. Like the Bowie it was frequently a large knife almost always double edged with a sharp acute point. The knife almost always had a double quillon guard and many were fancy and some imitated the Bowies of the day in size and appearance. Sure, some were plain, but most were elaborately decorated. This version has a substantial double edge spear point blade, with a Malaysian Sal wood handle and a fancy pommel with an alligator motif. The scabbard is equally stunning, it's finely made and decoratively enhanced to complement the handle.
The Cold Steel Arkansas Toothpick Dagger 88GTP is a modern fixed blade knife perfect for collectors or enthusiasts. With a sleek design and amofferextrous functionality, this knife features a plain blade edge and comes with a leather scabbard for safe storage and transport. The Cold Steel brand is known for producing high-quality knives, making this toothpick dagger a valuable addition to any collection. Related Items:
