Description
1 U.S. World War II Everitt knuckle knife. This is the black handle Everitt trench knuckle knife. This knife would make a rare addition to any collection.
The handle has the raised ‘EVERITT’ mark. This knife measures 11 7/16″ overall. The double-edge trench blade itself measures 6 1/2″. The blade is blackened.
The blade on this knife had a ‘cant’ put in it so that the blade follows the shape of the soldier’s leg. The sheath is a U.S. M8 scabbard.
CONDITION:
This WW2 Everitt knuckle knife is priced where it is, because, though completely authentic, it is pretty obvious to me that this knife was restored–and so a price adjustment goes with that restoration. The black paint on the handle was redone. The blade had rust on it–the rust was removed, then the blade was blackened again. There is surface pitting on the blade.
The U.S.M8 scabbard has damage to its tip–but the blade is kept completely within the sheath with no point exposed. The keeper strap and snap function perfectly.
