Hello experts,
I've inherited some WW2 war souvenirs and would appreciate help identifying this knife. Thank you for your time.
Please help identify this WW2 knife
Hello experts,
I've inherited some WW2 war souvenirs and would appreciate help identifying this knife. Thank you for your time.
Private purchase boot knife, would be my guess.

I'm inclined to think this is later than WWII - 60's.........?

Maybe I'm being on the pessimistic side but it looks to me like ""Made in Mexico" in English not Spanish. Ciudad Juarez in Chihuahua, or Tijuana in Baja California to the North where there is (or was) a lot of tourist trade? Best Regards, Fred
I rather doubt that the sheath goes with it either...

"Much that once was, is lost. For none now live who remember it."
Yep, surely a souvenir item with a dubious sheath, most likely very post-war and IMO definately not military.
Apart from that welcome to the forum and let's see the other items.

Agree, crudely made tourist item. Not dissimilar to knives my Dad would bring me back from his travels when I was a kid.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

I will send this thread off to the Discussion area....since by popular thoughts and demand says this is a non military item..and surely does not belong in this Edged Forum.
