1 vintage U.S. World War II theater-modified EGW combat knife.  This U.S. WW2 fighting knife is ID'd on its scabbard to a U.S. Army Captain.  This knife would make an important addition to any collection. 

A plate is affixed to the lower portion of the scabbard.  The plate reads 'CAPT. PATRICK J. DODD   M.G.Co. 26TH INF.   1ST DIV. U.S. ARMY.'. 

This knife measures 12 1/8" overall.  The fullered blade itself measures 7 5/8".   The handle was changed in theater to add aluminum spacers.  Note the desirable 'star-burst' snap on the scabbard. 

This vintage U.S. World War II theater EGW fighting knife is in excellent condition.  The blade edge has no nicks.  There is only the expected carbon finish patina on the blade.  The scabbard is in nearly perfect condition.
