Thank you for the info sir.Ripster wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2023 11:15 amThose are getting hard to purchase in any condition. Nice catch. Believe there are 4 different versions of this model.
The First Special Service Force was Americans and Canadians which became the Devils Brigade . Which became the Green Berets. Then the 10 th Mountain brigade came about .
Enjoy your military collecting.

Re: Your Favorite WWII Knife
These are all great knives! I have some of each. My current favorite is the 10th Mountain Division utility knife. I have only one, and it is a cherished item. I was just near Camp Hale in Colorado, beautiful but harsh!

Re: Your Favorite WWII Knife
I do believe it is WW2. It has the USN on the blade that looks the same as I have, and the pommel is pinned! It is in amazing condition tho… do you have provenance?
... Can anyone here confirm that this is WWII era issue knife? A man without a knife is a man without a life

Quite a few 10th Mountain fans, I enjoy seeing them. 
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Your Favorite WWII Knife
My new favorite. This was a gift from a great man and a guy I consider a brother. This will be the highlight of my collection forever. This is actually a bad picture, it actually looks much nicer and the etch is more visible than this picture shows.
