I purchased this item at the Owensboro Indian Artifact Show Earlier this Month. I do not know if this is the real deal or not. I am NOT a bowie knife expert in anyway. It certainly has some cool eye appeal and they have a great look about them. Maybe these were meant to fool. Maybe they are a 1920's era Copy.. We do not know. You are buying what is described and what you see. We have described this as best we can. We are going to sell these as a Fantasy piece. I would guess if this was an original, authentic buffalo bill set of knives they would sell for thousands upon thousands of dollars. We offer a no questions asked 30 day money back guarantee.
