Pile of Australian WWII relics with Commando Knife

[John W. Krueger]

I recently received this veteran's group of WWII relics, most of which have an old taped label on them. This includes a commando knife that has a taped label saying "Australian Commando Knife". It is marked on the ricasso "GREGORY STEEL PRODUCTS". Does anyone know what this knife is worth?

No idea on the commando kinfe but the large hook bladed 'Native Tribal Knife' is in fact an agricltural tool called a 'bill hook'. They were used by British Army pioneers from at least 1750 for clearing brush and trimming trees and probaly issued as late as WWII. It's missing a short [hatchet length] handle.

Knife is worth a little , these fetch $1200 AUD approx without sheath , quite rare in Australia also . Condition is not good but rarity is in your favor .
