condition grade: very good condition, maintaining an exceptional balance of authentic civil war field character and structural solidity. condition issues: the antique steel blade exhibits minor surface scuffs from historical drawing and cleaning, while the rare leather scabbard displays honest surface wear and localized finish flaking. dimensions: the heavy steel utility blade measures approximately 12 inches in length. pertinent markings & features: the ricasso is deeply stamped with the clear, arced manufacturer strike "collins & co. / hartford", complemented by a heavy brass crossguard and a distinctively scalloped brass protective chape on the sheath tip. [1]completeness: this investment lot is completely intact, retaining its original tightly segmented leather washer grip assembly, sturdy guard, and its highly sought-after, matching first-pattern all-leather military scabbard. historical background: designed under early union medical department initiatives, this massive collins-manufactured hospital corps tool predates the standard late-19th-century models, ranking it among the scarcest elite edged weapons of the civil war era
