    sword American fighting knife with original leather scabbard. Rare “Civil War saber to WW2 fighting knife”
    conversion listed in Silvey, Cole, Brett  & other books on WW2 edged weapons – don’t miss your chance to add it to your collection!
    The actual 3 knives M.H. Cole used for his drawings on page 121 of his book U.S. Military Knives Bayonets & Machetes Book IV. The top one is made from the mid-section of a M1913 Patton Saber.
    The middle one is made from the mid-section of a M1860 Civil War cavalry saber.
    The bottom one is made from a vintage Simmons Hardware Company oval shaped knife sharpening steel, (blade is .4" x .84" x 8" long).
    The knife is about 12-3/8”  overall; edge blade is about 7-1/2” the edges are in good condition, the tip is intact.Blade have been sharpened.  Wood handle is has a few typical contact marks but is structurally sound with no cracks. All parts are tight with no play.  Original leather scabbard is in very good overall condition, considering the age. The leather is a bit dry with a few age-related cracks and wrinkles, but it’s still serviceable overall.
    This WW2 era Cavalery sword American fighting knife with  wood handle and original scabbard is VERY rare these days – today most of the surviving WW2 American fighting knife former  swords are in private collections and are off the market. One of the best WW2 era “non-regulation” US fighting knives with a lot of character and in excellent overall condition, you will not be disappointed!
    Item is in exact condition as on the photo and description.
