This is an early blued blade, 1943 production U.S. M3 Fighting Knife made by Camillus. This is one of the nicest examples and a flat out MINT original WW2 M3 Fighting knife, and the original 1943 dated Milsco made M6 leather sheath. This American Military combat knife was first issued in March 1943. The M3 was originally designated for issue to soldiers not otherwise equipped with a bayonet. It was particularly designed for use by elite or shock forces in need of a close-combat knife such as the Airborne and Army Rangers. The knife was issued to other soldiers such as Army Air Corps crewmen and soldiers not otherwise equipped with a bayonet, including soldiers issued the M1 Carbine or submachine gun. This is an exceptionally nice example of this highly collected knife.
