1 rare vintage U.S. World War 2 Stelzig knuckle knife.  This World War combat knife would make a rare addition to any collection.

This style of Stelzig knuckle knife can be seen in Mike Silvey's book U.S. Military Knives - World War 2.  This Stelzig knife measures 12 3/4" overall.  The blade itself measures 8 1/16".  Note the weighted skull crusher pommel on this Stelzig's WWI Mark 1 trench knife style handle.   

The scabbard is stamped on its belt loop 'STELZIG  SADDLERY CO.  HOUSTON, TEXAS'.  The sheath is also ID'd on the back--the vet's serial #: 'P5312' is stenciled in black. 

This very difficult to find WW2 Stelzig knuckle knife is in excellent condition.  The sheath is in quite perfect condition.  A portion of this rare knife's guard was broken off in battle. 

Locating, and adding a rare Stelzig knuckle knife to one's collection would be a feather in the cap of any U.S. or world militaria collector.
