Hi Gents,

 

I picked this pair up recently from a local collector. I've have researched the so called 'Delta Knife' and understand that there Is a bit of controversy and lack of Information surrounding It, apparently It's the scarcest variant with the black handle with grey blue swirls running through It although this Is pretty Indistinct. The blade Is not heavily water marked but has some kind of black grease all over It. However, I have been unable to find out anything about the other knife. The gentleman I purchased them from was adamant that It was a 'boat knife' (his words) but I have yet to find any reference to It.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Yours, Guy.

In Cole's book lV page 62, states the knife was issued to Delta forces and UDT unit #13 in Vietnam. The knife was issued completely unmarked.
