Beschreibung:

The forged-steel, pike head is 19" long, the spike or spear portion with socket being 9-3/8" long and the langets, or side-straps being 9-5/8" long. Each langet has three evenly-spaced holes to accommodate the iron rivets that would secure the head to the shaft. The spear portion of the head is spike-shaped, the 7" spike is four-sided or square in cross-section profile, it is 9/16" wide at its widest, tapering upward to a point. The blackened leather sheath or scabbard is 11" long x 1-5/8" wide at its base, which has two holes punched near its corners, to which the original hempen cord ties used to secure it to the pike shaft still remain attached. The pike or scabbard sheath is stamped “USN / BOSTON” within an oblong bordered cartouche and probably dates to the 2nd quarter of the 19th century. CONDITION: Both very good overall.
