Two collar insignia combined to create a sweetheart pin 

First up, a heavily modified blade marked PAL M3. The blade has been completely reprofiled, the handle itself on this example was also rebuilt. It looks like the original tang was snapped and long bolt was put in its place. The guard and pommel was also replaced with shaped pieces of aluminium, with clear Lucite spacers forming the handle. In the middle sits a larger piece of aluminium with two thin shims made out of brass.    The sheath appears to of been recycled leather, possibly a belt. Purposely made for this knife, basic decoration on the front using what could be castle nuts and another I recognise but can’t place.

Hello all. Recently added this insignia to my collection. I have not seen one like it and it is an interesting find. Thoughts and info?

Very nice , great work cleaning it up.  I have one of these that didn't explode but cracked open when it hit. Would love to clean it up like yours. 

. Jeep mystery I cannot find a reason for.   Looking at the body gusset fixing which extends down from the dash to the floor on Jeep side walls I have noticed a curve in the rear upright, however these curves appear irregular and not consistent in size, length and depth and shapes from body to body almost as if it was ground in by hand by employees working at the department manufacturing these gussets and no desired compatibility needed.  Some are quite deep and some are hardly noticeable, the ones on my Jeep appear to be more pronounced ones as I have also seen on a few others.    Being a Jeep freak does have its drawbacks questioning the reasons for this and that . . . . . . . . . .                  Norman D.
