Anyone care for Ka-Bars

[sdh1911]

Thanks you, it's a little more like an accumulation gone rouge. For some reason it has taken on a life of its own, it slowly grows and feed's off of our operating expense. Much like the Mosin Nagants hanging on the ceiling in my work locker-SDH

You look to be the guy to ask here.
What is a good indicator of a WW2 army issue K-Bar sheath?
Is it the flat staple type rivets, or the round rivets.
Cheers

WW II Ka-Bars came in with both rivets and stapled scabbard. They may be marked on the U.S.N./U.S.M.C. but, you will never see the globe and ball on a WW II scabbard. Early riveted scabbards that have partial or no liners between the front and rear are considered very early and bring a premimum, HTH-SDH

Attached are a few Ka-Bars, i.e. type 37 utility/fighting knives we have hanging around the basement. If any of you fella's have any questions or comments both me and my partner in crime (P.I.C.) would be glad to entertain-SDH/P.I.C.
