Original U.S. WWII M3 Fighting Knife by CASE with M8 Scabbard
-
Original Item: Only One Available. This is a good WWII period Mark 3 U.S. fighting knife, with the guard deeply stamped with, U.S. M3 / CASE. The 6 3/4 inch spear point blade is in great condition with minor wear and amazing retention of the finish. The blade is still quite sharp and in fair service-worn condition with some sharpening marks. The handle and stacked leather grip are in similar service-worn condition with minor wear. There are no major cracks, and the leather is still soft, though due to shrinking the cross guard is now loose. The bottom of the pommel has a very faint flaming bomb mark.
The original scabbard is in great shape and is marked U.S. M8 / B.M. CO.. This would be the earlier pattern of the scabbard, without the retaining loop, though it was later updated to have one. The scabbard was manufactured by Beckwith Mfg Co. a division of Victory Plastics.
A fair example of a real service-used M3 Fighting knife, with a good look and scabbard. Ready to display!
