Original U.S. WWII Case Stiletto Fighting Knife With Correct Leather Sheath - Aerial Cutlery
-
Original Item. Only One Available This is a great WWII Case Stiletto “OSS Commando” Fighting Knife, with its original leather sheath. This example was manufactured by Aerial Cutlery.
The knife has an overall length of 11¼”, a blade length of 6¾”, with a sheath length of 11¾”. The grips of the knife is a stacked material with black and white pieces in between the wood pieces. The Blade is marked AERIAL Cut. Mfg. Co. very faintly. The blade is in great shape overall and is very sharp, so it may have been sharpened postwar.
This particular Case Stiletto may not be the renowned V-42, but it was still a valuable asset during the war. It has a rich history of being used in clandestine operations, and its condition is a testament to its unique role as not being a standard utility “everyday” knife. The knife is in exceptional un-issued condition, with only minor signs of storage wear. It is "sterile," which means that it does not bear any markings that could give away its country of origin, ensuring that it could not be traced back to its owner in case it fell into enemy hands.
The stacked leather washer grip is equally impressive. This Case Stiletto is a remarkable piece of history that any enthusiast would be proud to own. The included leather scabbard is an original period example and is in exceptional condition.
An exceptional example ready for further research and display.
