USMCSF Posted December 2, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 2, 2014 As you can see, the leather grip has about disintegrated into its component parts, and has lost some rings - It was like this 30 years ago, have had it for about that long.The USMC marked Ka-bar blade is super dull, but not that badly rusted.The scabbard is fascinating.It appears to be owner marked Gary Fruik.I tried years ago tracking him down, no joy, and have about given up hope.Sure not a common name though.On the reverse is marked his pivotal stops.* San Diego* Camp Pendleton* Pearl Harbor* Guadalcanal* Mog mogIf this could talk, what a story it would tell !
