For sale here is a good representative US WW2 M3 Fighting Knife. The Knife is made by Camillus. The M3 is complete with US M8 marked scabbard by B.M. Co. The M3 is guard marked. The blade is almost completely devoid of finish. The blade shows fine sharpening and use, but doesn't have any major nicks, and there is a great factory point on the blade. The blade does show some age greying and some small rust pits. The crossguard has some remaining ...finish and the underside of the guard is marked US M3 Camillus. The pommel shows hammer useand is held in place by 4 pins. The pommel shows considerable finish loss and there is an arsenal mark flaming bomb that is visible through the hammering. The handle is made from stacked leather washers with 8 square grooves. The left, right, and top side of the leather handle show heavy dents. There is some wiggle to the handle of the knife. Nothing major, but there is some wiggle. There are several sections of the handle washers that move left and right a bit. I cannot tell if there is wiggle in the crossguard and pommel, but if there is, it is extremely minor, and might not be noticeable without the wiggle in the handle washers. The scabbard is in good condition, and is better than the knife. The top of the canvas has been sewn together to hold a belt hook, but the hook is missing. The scabbard does have a canvas loop with functional brass snap and steel tip. The snap and tip both show some finish loss. The front of the throat is marked U.S. M8 over B.M. Co. The back of the body of the scabbard is marked vpf over 21. The scabbard fittings show nice even wear with no issues. The body of the scabbard shows some light use and wear, but nothing heavy. The scabbard is missing the thong, but the hole is nice. The knife fits nicely into the scabbard with some wobble and easily pulls back out. This is a decent knife that will be a good addition to any collection.
