I would like to create a BIP39 24 word seed for holding.

Is Sparrow Wallet trusted for such task?

I'm planning on doing it on an offline PC without ethernet cable and booting Linux from a USB installation disk (Example:"Try Ubuntu before Install" option). And then following these steps: https://sparrowwallet.com/docs/quick-start.html#creating-your-first-wallet

Once the seed phrase is generated I'll backup and import it into an air-gapped hardware wallet.


I would advocate  hardware wallet as a SEED source. At least with such opt you could be able to use multisig set up grounded on Sparrow and your air-gapped HW. Here you can find instance relevant to Passport-Sparrow-multisig wallet.

Even offline computers (being infected ) may create compromised SEED.
