Hi here is my trench knife representative...After going through ones that look like they were used every day after the war and was in terrible shape, and then getting those mint ones that probably was no where near a trench, I settled on this one...
It has the imperial stamp, it is unit marked, the paint wear on the back looks like that it was rubbing on material as it was worn, so I feel it has real honest use...troddel or whatever (don't know much about these)...is I was told the shorter one that was given later for trench knives...I believe it was with only one other collector who got it from a vets family...I'm happy with this one, is there anything you guys can tell me about it that I have not noticed? Any info on the unit would be helpful JR 448 10 K.
Thanks
Rick
