Thanks Jim. No history on the knife, nor have I found anything on the original owner. Just one of those mysteries.
I agree, the maintenance of it for 74 years was outstanding. I carefully cleaned off the verdigris on the sheath snaps, but not much of it to clean.
I have posted many pics of the sheath because of the rareness and condition, but the final polish on the blade is clean and prominent too!
Some carbon peppering and carbon spiders, but hey, it's a 74 year old knife.
