Yeah I was thinking that

The 2nd 225Q and to me it’s a keeper.     

From the way it buttons, it must have belonged to a woman.

Next up and my no1 favourite blade type, the Cattaraugus 225Q       The entire blade looks to be unchanged, keeping all of its original parts apart from the stacked leather handle. Red Lucite spacers used and that is it. The sheath it came to me in is obviously from another knife. I had to carefully remove a lot of rust from this one to prevent it going any further, I can imagine this one was modified post war but I could be wrong. 

The last of my M3s, a blade marked Case.    The blade guard and tang appear unchanged, perhaps the shoulders ground down at the end. This handle has Lucite, Delrin? As well as leather spacers, with brass disks throughout. The leather spacers have shrank with time, the handle overall is shaped for the fingers and flat for the palm of the hand.    The end piece looks to have the original disk with a further separate piece placed ontop, and rounded. I’m not sure how it is fixed into place though. 

That is a nice bracket, mine has some serious pitting at the underside for some reason but I don't have a pic. I did forget to mention the mounting holes for the Tombstone are further apart indeed, and is how I knew my jeep was fitted with one of these in the field.       I never noticed that, I will have to check mine but I think it has something to do with how these pillars were formed in a press?    

Another blade marked Pal, and probably my favourite.    Again, the blade its guard and tang seem to be unchanged, but the pommel disk was replaced, clear Lucite spacers as well as leather that could be what was salvageable from the original stacked handle. The end piece being made from multiple stacked Lucite pieces then shaped to a kick. The end cap being formed from an oblong piece and peened over neatly. 

Ciao ! Sì ho applicato proprio la stessa ! Grazie del consiglio ! Adesso sto facendo fare dei cartellini su quale proiettile e con il disegno etc. Come se fosse un museo !

I have an ID’d jungle jacket straight from the vets family with black thread hand stitches for “ US army” tab. This one looks good for the most part.

If you haven't already done this, I would consider applying a thin coating of Renaissance Wax on the Iron Surface. It will prohibit the iron from beginning to oxidize. I would leave the Copper Rotating Band wax free so that it can develop a patina. Although perhaps you may want the iron to show some patina as well before you wax it.    Again, great item. It tells a powerful story as a static display!
