Product Overview
During WWII our troops carried a variety of fighting knives and many of them were private purchase. Floyd Nichols, a metal sculptor from Nebraska made some of the best private purchase knives of the era. Our version is made like the originals from hand-forged high carbon steel, which is tempered for optimal strength, durability and edge holding qualities. The cast brass grip fits sweetly in the hand and its unique shape is a thing of beauty. The pommel cap was usually graced with an "Indian-head" nickel soldered in place (ours is a one-sided reproduction proof). The razor sharp blade is 7 1/4" long & overall is 12 1/4"; weighs 14 oz. The brown leather sheath is top-grained stitched with waxed linen thread and riveted at the stress points. Will fit 2" belts. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts.
