1 rare, near-mint condition U.S. World War II blade-marked Case XX M3 trench knife. This near-mint knife has a matching near-mint L&C M6 scabbard. This knife and scabbard would make a premium addition to any collection.
This is a rare blued M3. The blade-marked knife is stamped on the blade 'U.S.M3 CASE'. This knife measures 11 7/16" overall. The blade itself measures 6 5/8". The pommel is peened. The end of the pommel is stamped with a small miniature flaming bomb.
The M6 scabbard is stamped on its front 'U.S. M6 L&C 1943 FJA'.
This rare blued U.S. M3 trench knife and M6 scabbard are in near-mint condition. There is only a very occasional superficial handling mark on knife and sheath. The pommel and guard have just barely the beginnings of mild oxidation. The blade is perfect--no rust, with its unused factory edge--and with the original factory machining marks on the blade.
