WWII THEATRE FIXED BLADE KNIFE

Additional Item Images

I am intrigued with military knives of this vintage. Hope you are also. As the saying goes: "If only they could talk"

I'd love to hear what this one has to say!

It is a bodacious knife. I really won't be too upset if this knife never sells. This is a real piece of WW II history.

It appears to have been made from a KA-BAR that was shortened. A 1"clip was put on the blade.

Alumnium butt cap. A brass guard then an aluminum piece. Black, maroon, aluminum, and brass spacers make up the handle.

What's unique about this knife is it has an individual's name and date stamped on the tang.

C.J. Carlton stamped on one side and 11-45 stamped on the other. You don't suppose this could be Carlton of Carlton's Raiders? NAW

9 3/4" oal 5 1/4" blade

A heavy duty sheath that appears to have been made for the knife is stamped WESTON SUPPLY COMPANY MAKERS SAN GABRIEL, CALIF.
