US WW2 Richtig Fighting Knife w/CORNISH SHEATH/Antique Dagger/FJR CLARKSON NEB











US WW2 Richtig Fighting Knife w/CORNISH SHEATH/Antique Dagger/FJR CLARKSON NEB
$0
1 U.S. World War 2 Richtig double-edged fighting knife w/Alfred Cornish sheath. A WW2 Richtig fighting knife w/Cornish sheath is the combination every Richtig fighter collector is looking for. This desirable Richtig fighting knife would make an important addition to any U.S. military or world militaria collection.
This knife was made by a legend in knife-making. Frank Richtig had a secret steel tempering process that allowed him to slice through railroad spikes and automobile leaf springs. Frank would demonstrate this at county fairs–after slicing a railroad spike or leaf spring, he would slice through a piece of paper with the same knife. Frank earned himself a spot in a ‘Ripley’s Believe It or Not’ magazine in the 1930’s. These knives can be used for decades, because of Frank’s superior craftsmanship.
This knife measures 13 1/8″ overall. The blade itself measures 8 1/8″. The guard and pommel are brass. The pommel is stamped ‘F.J.R. CLARKSON NEB.’. This knife has a fuller, and its false edge is sharpened half way back from the tip.
The sheath is stamped ‘ALFRED CORNISH OMAHA, NEB.’. The G.I. that carried this knife threaded a web belt hanger onto the top of the sheath.
A double-edged Richtig dagger is hard to find (especially in this configuration with a fuller, and a sharpened false edge). This knife would make an important acquisition for any collector.

US Vietnam War RVN 1918 Mk2 5th Special Forces Trade Trench Fighting Knife






US Vietnam War RVN 1918 Mk2 5th Special Forces Trade Trench Fighting Knife
$0
This knife was originally purchased by a collector from Frank Trzaska. Here is Frank’s description of this knife:
On page 190 of MILITARY KNIVES, A REFERANCE BOOK, “For the lack of a better name I’ll call this knife the RVN 1918 Mk2, as it consists of parts from both the 1918 Mark 1 Trench Knife and the Mark 2 USMC Fighting Utility Knife. This knife was the brainchild of a select group of the 5th Special forces members. While the first knife was produced as a weapon for actual use, the following knives were produced strictly for trade purposes.” I purchased this knife in 2008. Most of these hard to find knives have found their way into the hands of serious collectors and rarely come up for sale. Two things make this knife slightly different from the few others that were made. First the backside of the guard is usually cut away so that the knife can lay flat on the sheath. The guard on this handle was not altered. Instead the sheath was molded to fit the larger guard. The second difference is that the blades on most of these special forces trade knives were Mark 2 blades. This one was made from what must have been a new Pal RH 36 blade. It still has all its original Parkerizing. The sheath was made for this knife and has the attachment for the US pistol belt. This is a very rare piece. Don’t miss this opportunity.
