WWII 4th GENERATION KA-BAR USMC FIGHTING KNIFE W/SHEATH

Description: WWII 4th GENERATION KA-BAR USMC FIGHTING KNIFE W/SHEATH. Some of the most desirable U. S. fighting knives of WWII are the Marine fighting knives made by the Union Cutlery Company (KA-BAR). The first of those were the hot-blued finished so-called "Red Spacer" KA-BAR's which did not hold up well in the hot, humid jungle conditions of the Southwest Pacific islands, like Guadalcanal, where the Marines fought. As a result, for its 2nd generation of Marine fighting knives KA-BAR switched to a gray-blue Parkerized finish, and for its 3rd generation it switched to a gray-black Parkerized finish and also changed from a rounded to a rectangular pommel peen. And,finally, for its 4th generation it switched to a thin, pinned pommel. This knife is one of those 4th generation knives, and as the photos show, it is in excellent plus condition. A little finish has been worn off of the blade, but it has not been sharpened, and it is otherwise in its original condition - much like it was when it left the factory. It's blade is properly stamped with the smaller "KA-BAR" on it left ricasso and "USMC" on its right. It comes with its original sheath which has "RB" lightly scratched on the back. If you have any questions, please ask before buying or making an offer. Thanks.
