How can you people be so lame as to let anyone edit this stuff and call this an ecyclopedia? I could go on and on about the different things wrong with this one article ! you don't even have the length of the blade correct!! I have an 1847,with a broken tip, and it is 35 and 3 quarters!

The image is a reproduction of an 1860. I should post a real 1840 image. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmcentire ( talk • contribs) 13:16, 11 March 2024 (UTC) reply
