This knife went to the sandpile and came back. I was told it was a Camillus, but it has no markings.
It was carried much, used little. There is wear on the pommel and some scuffing at the tip, but the original finish is still on much of the blade.
The leather handle is in good shape. The trooper who first had it tried to modify the original sheath, but he didn't like it so he used something else.
The slightly modified original sheath with the sharpening stone is included.
What I am looking for:
Spyderco Kumo
I like automatic knives. I also like military style fixed blade knives.
Benchmade Nimravus
Gerber LMT II
Buck Intrepid
Becker
Not limited to these.
I am also looking for a sheath for my Busse Mud Razor. Let me know what you have.

Come on folks. This is the knife issued for so many years to Air force pilots for E&E (escape and evasion) in case they were shot down over enemy territory. Surely you have something to trade.
 
You might want to display the "slightly modified original" sheath in the picture. The sheath you show, without the metal point guard, doesn't look like it's seen any service. If if was carried on a web belt, the results will be quite obvious. As for no markings on the knife itself, my Ontario has both the name and the month-year on the pommel. I suspect that the Camillus is the same. What you have there is...??
 
It does come with the stone.

I am bound to doing trades only for a few reasons, only one of which is that this is the trade board.

Let me know what angles you would like to see and I will post them.

If you are not interested in trading it for $20, how about a couple CETME bayonets?

I received them from Century Arms and have no details on their history. Both are used with the one on top looking newer than the other.
