amberg1853 Posted October 13, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 13, 2020 Just picked up this knife in a set of WW1 stuff. I left in uncleaned. Wood handle is very nice, the blade shows heavy pitting and rust. There are two leather scabbards that it fits, one leather scabbard is a little smaller so at some point probably belonged to another knife. Only marking I could find appears to be a letter L on the crossguard. Has anybody seen this style of knife before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warguy Posted October 13, 2020 Share #2 Posted October 13, 2020 The leather sheaths are US and intended for the mess kit fork and knife so that they didn’t damage the inside of the haversack. The square one intended for the fork, and pointed one for the knife. These don’t have anything to do with your trench knife. Sorry, I don’t know anything about the trench or fighting knife, maybe someone else can help with that. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
