You have a Case manufactured Quartermaster's knife.
Depending on which reference you choose to believe, the knife is either strictly rear echelon, or seabee, or combat. In practice, I am sure that once it made it into the theater it eventually ended up everywhere. Most of the Q225 knives were manufactured by Cattagaragus(sp?). It is a well designed and very strong knife, and the Case examples are rarer (uncommon) and better finished.
Hope this helps.

As the previous poster stated, you have a Quartermaster knife.They were made by Case,Kabar,Camillus,Cattaraugus, and probably a few others.The name was actually a misnomer as they weren't issued to Quartermasters and they were excellent fighting/utility knives. There was an article about them in one of the Knives annuals.
