7. Consignment ~ KL ~ WWII early 3rd pattern S/F knife, with the broad arrow B2 marking. Has not been retipped, as so many were. I think that the scabbard is likely a reproduction, albeit a very good one. The knife just looks older than the sheath. Back of sheath is stamped Made in England and an inked in price of $6.95…??? Ring impressions of sheath look like they have been together for a long time… $250 http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6678.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6679.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6680.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6681.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6682.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6683.JPG http://www.militaryknives.bizland.com/6684.JPG

Very unique custom made scabbard has been stitched by machine and scalloped to fit the knife handle. Owner’s name is on the back and his initials are stamped into the pommel area (see pictures). This knife and scabbard show some age, but I believe that it was never carried.

This additional information came from fellow collector Kerry Gordon. (thanks Kerry) I just thought that you might like to know that you weren't the only one ever caught with one of these - not only do I have the French version but I also have one with the Belgian Rampant Lion stamped into the hilt. The real give away with these is that the blade tang doesn't run all the way through the pommel nut, there's about two threads empty at the end of the nut. The other thing is that the brass pommel nuts are painted with gloss black paint rather than blackened. Someone spent a lot of time and effort on these, the blades are tinned under the blackening and the hilts are blackened brass that is reasonable well checkered.
