V RARE WW2 (AKE Reg) Australian N Zealand USMC COMMANDO FIGHTING KNIFE & Sheath
Very Rare and Hard to Find a WWII WW2 Australian New Zealand Cast Aluminum Cross Checkered handled Bladed Fighting Commando Knife I believe popular with the USMC Enlisted Men. Estate Find and the way I found it... Not Messed With Cleaned Etc!! No owner information was given to me at the Estate Sale. A NICE CONDITION BLADE ONE LIKE THIS DOESN'T COME UP OFTEN and ALSO with ORIGINAL LEATHER SHEATH!

Marked on the one side of the blade A K E Regd, total length 9 3/4" and the blade only length 4 7/8". The handle is cast aluminum with finger gripping on the one edge and with hold fast grip cross checkering on both sides. I have seen these with the'Closed' type of grip with same handle type, and it is possible that the'Closed' bottom part was broken in battle and ground down YEARS ago all shows similar patina. Knife overall in great condition original patina with proper old grime and shows thin lines of some sort maybe some sharpening and other combat??

Blade is straight no nicks but does show a teeny bit of curve to the right side see closeup. Original to the knife is the Leather Sheath in great condition original patina and some grime wear and showing handle aluminum rub wear on its insert side. Belt slits on sheath all in tack and not worn or broken. Leather wonderful not breaking down and clean no odors.

This knife & sheath were well cared for. Otherwise clean no damage or odors and FROM A SMOKE FREE HOME. Please view all my photos as they are also part of my description. I have described everything to the best of my knowledge. Funds are received and cleared, as noted above. Thank You for your interest.
