Civil War bowie knife and a lot more!!

[diggervet]

2012 is off to a great start for me and my son, we got permission recently to hunt a spot that the owner has kept locked down for at least ten years and limited hunting prior to that. All told we've found over 140 bullets of various types including a rare confederate austrian and a button that I believe to be either a navy from 1812 or a local militia button. My son has pulled a ton of shrapnel including two very large hotchkiss frags. I'm ecstatic about the bowie knife which cleaned up well. We will continue to hammer this site and I hope to have more pictures soon! Thanks for looking!

Looks like there was a shore nuff fight at that spot. The Bowie knife is in unbelievable shape. Congrats!
