1 vintage WW2 Camillus Marine Raider stiletto fighting knife available.  This knife has absolutely none of the usual crazing/cracking of the guard and handle that is normally present on 90% of Raider stilettos.  This knife is an important part of American history, and would make a rare addition to any collection. 

This knife was carried by a member of Carlson's Raiders.  See page 86 of Mike Silvey's book Knives of the United States Military -- World War II for a photo of the Raider stiletto. 

This Marine Raider stiletto measures 12 3/16" overall.  The blade itself measures 7 1/16".  The blade etches are clear 'U.S.M.C.'.  The tang etch reads 'CAMILLUS CUTLERY  CAMILLUS N.Y.'. 

The front of the scabbard is marked with the Raider's nickname 'SMILEY'.  The metal tip plate has a Marine Corps insignia affixed to it. 

This historic Marine Raider knife is in exceptional condition.  As mentioned above, there is absolutely no cracking or crazing of the metal handle or guard.  The blade has some occasional minor pitting.  The blade etches are excellent.  The Raider scabbard is excellent as well, with all rivets, stitches, staples, the keeper strap, and snap in perfect condition.
