VERY LARGE AUTHENTIC 9 3/8" WISCONSIN OLD COPPER CULTURE TANG KNIFE FROM THE BUSSEY COLLECTION
RECENTLY PICKED UP A FAIR AMOUNT OF OLD COPPER CULTURE ARTIFACTS FROM THE JIM BUSSEY COLLECTION IN WISCONSIN. MOST WERE PERSONAL FINDS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN, ESPECIALLY FROM THE AREA AROUND LAKE NOKOMIS IN ONEIDA COUNTY. THIS COPPER TANG KNIFE IS PROBABLY THE LONGEST COPPER ARTIFACT I HAVE SOLD. IT MEASURES 9 3/8" LONG BY 7/8" WIDE. THE KNIFE HAD A COUPLE OF BENDS IN THE UPPER BLADE WHEN FOUND AND IT HAS BEEN STRAIGHTENED - THERE IS NO MATERIAL LOSS OR RESTORATION. IT RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL PATINA AND SHOWS WELL. IT IS AN EXCELLENT AND EXCEPTIONALLY LONG EXAMPLE AND IT IS GUARANTEED TO BE GENUINE.
