1 highly collectible M.W. Silvey book knife available. This is the actual knife pictured in Mike Silvey’s book Knives of the United States Military–World War II. This WW2 OSS stiletto would make an important addition to any collection.
As mentioned above, this knife is the knife photographed for page 144 of Silvey’s WW2 book. Note the same exact color variations in the handle in the book photo and my photos. Note too the same mark(s) on the sheath.
This knife has one Rockwell test mark on one side of the blade. The other side of the blade has three Rockwell test marks. As mentioned in Silvey’s letter, the rubber o-ring was deteriorated. In the 16 years since Mike’s letter, the rubber o-ring deteriorated further to the point of it coming off completely. They always were just a rubber o-ring anyway, so most collectors just go to their hardware store to get one to replace it.

Case V42 Stiletto Knife PROTOTYPE SCABBARD -V-42/1st SSF/Dagger/SHEATH/US WW II
Case V42 Stiletto Knife PROTOTYPE SCABBARD -V-42/1st SSF/Dagger/SHEATH/US WW II
$0
1 antique Prototype/variation scabbard for the U.S. World War 2 Case V-42 stiletto. This issued Prototype Case V-42 long sheath would make an exceptionally rare addition in any collection.
The rare WW2 scabbard smells just like the items in my grandpa’s WW2 foot locker. The leg tie-down thongs has minor crazing. Note that there is a narrow rub mark above the scabbard throat where a V-42’s guard rubbed against the leather.
Note the characteristic rolled seam on the back side of the sheath at the top just under a vet signature.
The V42 knife was used by the First Special Service Force. Frank Trzaska notes in his article “The Case V-42 Stiletto” which appeared in the April 1998 edition of KnifeWorld, that “The U.S. Special Forces (Green Berets) use the V-42 in their Distinctive Insignia, their Unit Crest and in their shoulder patch.” The Case V-42 is a coveted and classic U.S. fighting knife.
This early issued Prototype scabbard is ID’d on the back to ‘Sgt. Stan Bradford‘.
