ww2 M3 trench/fighting knife by Imperial. This is an early
model with the manufacturer name on the blade. Blade has a
lot of the original parkerizing on it. Pommel has the
flaming bomb ordnance stamp. The leather washer handle is
nice and firm, but the crossguard is slightly wobbley. The
scabbard is the USM8 and is by B.M Co and so marked. Shows
lightl wear from use overall, but still very solid and nice.
$299
3.US ww1 M1917
trench/fighting knife by A.C.CO. 1917 and U.S.A. stamped.
Nice textbook example, doesn't look used. Wooden handle is
perfect, with just age. Correct blackened metal has a couple
old surface rust spots, but is otherwise very nice. Really
great example of a trench knife that is nearly 100 years
old. $299
4.US
ww2 Navy Mark 2 fighting knife in near mint condition by
Camillus. Looks like it has a slightly sharpened edge put on
it, otherwise, it looks unissued. Scabbard is in near mint
to mint condition, maker marked on reverse B.M. Co. with
other information. Great example, this knife is modeled on
the "Ka-Bar". $224
5.US ww2 M1
carbine M4 bayonet by Utica. Nice, used example with it's
USM8 scabbard, marked to "B.M. Co.". Most finish is gone
from the blade, but it is still excellent. Handle is firm
and solid. Crossguard marked "U.S.M4 UTICA" and has the
flaming bomb, which is the ordnance stamp. Scabbard is
solid, just shows normal wear from use. Overall the bayonet
is near excellent. In "as brought back" condition. $250
6.US
General's M-1 bayonet letter openers. These belonged to
General , who's cattaraugas fighting knife I sold earlier.
Two different for 2 different divisions he served with
during his long career (1935-1974) He became a Major General
in 1967, so I would date these between 1967 and 1974.
Bayonet is chromed, with emblem on them, one side engraved
with his name, rank, the other with the unit. The grips are
plastic, made to look like wood. They are about 7" or 8"
long. They are perfect in the box. Each is $120 SALE! $79
each.
7.US
WW1 (I think) and "I LIKE IKE" cigarette packs. The first
one is from the estate of a WW1 and WWII veteran, but I
think it is a WWI cigarette pack. It is French made, "Eagle"
brand by "J. Bastos" of France and Tunisia. Has most of the
cigs still in it! Excellent condition. $50, SALE! $30 the
second is a 1950s? empty pack of "Eisenhower for President"
cigarettes. Pack is ripped, but mostly intact. Very scarce.
$39 SALE! $20
8.WWII
Airborne print made from a painting done by a WWII veteran,
while in Europe during the war. Depicts "Operation Varsity'.
Nice quality, done on heavy stock. Printed years ago and
impossible to find. Great display item for your collection
room. SALE $12
9.US
WW1 & WW2 grenade vest, mint, unissued condition.
Absolutely pristine example, these were issued in the first

This example still has the straps wrapped and and is maker
marked on the back and dated 1918. Impossible to upgrade.
$75
10.US
ww2 M4 bayonet for the M1 carbine, in near mint/unissued
condition. This knife is in absolutely gorgeous condition,
as is the M8 scabbard. The crossguard is marked with the
manufacturer "Utica", "M4" and the US ordnance flaming bomb.
The scabbard is manufacturer marked by B.M co. Parkerized
blade is in near mint condition with nearly 100% of the
finish. Scabbard shows light signs of use and of having the
bayonet stored in in all these years and a couple small
oxidation spots to rivits. If you are looking for a near
mint example, this may be for you. Choice!
