Bolo

n2s,
No, unfortunately it did not come with a sheath. I think the grip is also a replacement, though I'm not sure. It just looks quite a bit newer than the blade or guard.

It looks like one of those American made bolos around WWII or before based on the PI bolos.

Battara,
Thanks for your reply. I thought of that when I first received this bolo but I have yet to find any other quite like this one. The grip is one solid piece of horn and the tang goes all the way through it and is then riveted over.
