Aussie copy of Marine Raider knife

At least I assume so. Got this gem about 35 years ago. The cast brass handle is copied from the USMC raider stilleto, but the blade is about an inch longer. The scabbard is the typical dark brown that you often see with Aussie made blades. The wire hook is uniquely longer.

The scabbard is named on the front with McRick crudely scratched in. The back has in red ink the number 411 129. Serial number?

Those are nice pieces.  I always thought they were made in India, but I can't remember why.  Mine has "US" etched onto the blade.  Only one I have seen like that.

 

I think Bill Walters has one for sale on his site - #14
