poch Posted February 23, 2010 Share #1 Posted February 23, 2010 Few weeks ago I bought from US collector a Ka-Bar Mark 2 knife with Mark 2 scabbard. There are some letters on the scabbard so I put it under UV lamp and I found name Robert Cyril Hovorka and number 727-54-82 I think. Look at the picture. Can you help me to find some information about this man? It is very interesting for me because name Hovorka is Czech name and I want to know his story. Thank you for your help.
