World War II Antique US Army M3 Fighting Knife:
$240.00

This World War II M3 Imperial fighting knife has been in my family for about 80 years. It was used and carried in Italy, France, Belgium and Germany. It is an original, as is the M8, self-clamping scabbard made by the P.M. Co. It was repatriated in 1945. I inherited it in 1981.

The knife was obviously used. It appears to have been sharpened often, the mark of someone who cared for their hardware. The leather grip was oiled a number of times, the guard has been tightened, and the scabbard, seen in the last pictures, is scraped and scratched. It is NOT and has never been used as a bayonet.

My father never wanted to talk about his wartime experiences and I never pressed him on it.

WYSISYG.

I am now well over 80 and I need to downsize before my heirs have to do it for me.

Note that shipping charges and postage are estimated. If it is less, I will refund the difference.

If you get more than one of my listings at the same time, I will combine shipping and fees.

Thanks for looking and good luck!

Payment is expected within 5 days. Shipping is the following business day, which means that, other than on a Sunday or legal US holiday, shipping is normally done the day after I receive your payment. If I receive it by 9:30am, I can sometimes get it out the same day.

All who pay on time are provided with excellent response at the time of payment. If you are happy with your item, I would appreciate the same.
