WWII Navy Deck Knife w/Sheath, Made By Western

U.S. WWII Navy Deck Knife/Fighting Knife. Made under Navy contract by Western. In original russet brown leather sheath. These have become scarce and collectible in the 21st Century.  Often erroneously called “Shark Knives”, these were designed primarily for utility purposes by naval ship crews while on deck. Both the knife and sheath are in very good condition. (See photos.) (ZZZZ-048)
