I have a customer who is a civil war re-enactor. He wants a "period-correct" knife. What is that? I know Bowies were in vogue at that time. Is there another style that would've been the iconic knife for a union or confederate soldier to carry? All the interent searches I've run mostly return bowies, and I'm wondering if I'm just going about my searches all wrong. Any help y'all could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
ML
