Austro Hungarian trench knife

[BarneyDave]

I just want to double check the trench knife is real. The ricasso is stamped AB. The knife doesn't look in great shape but catches my eye for some reason.

[BarneyDave]

Anyone with any thoughts on the trench knife?

Greetings BD,

From what I can see, it appears original but in "salty" condition. These knives are usually OK as long as they are not being sold/purchased from Poland:-)

Thanks, being sold in uk, so should be ok. Get to see it Friday and see how 'salty' it is.
