1 WW2 Camillus Marine Raider stiletto fighting knife available. This knife is an important part of American history, and would make a rare addition to any collection.

I hadn\'t checked the Raider roster, but have just heard from a collector who checked. This soldier isn\'t listed on the roster. In that case, this knife was traded or given to another serviceman. Over the years I have seen it countless times. A Marine hasn\'t been able to get his hands on a Japanese samurai sword--sees another Marine with one, and proposes a trade. I have heard lots of stories. One was about a G.I. trading the sword he got for a carton of cigarettes. Another guy told me about when he was a kid. He had a paper route that paid him $5 a week. He would go down to the docks when the Marines and G.I.\'s were unloading from overseas after the war. He was able to get one sword a week from a Marine or G.I. for as long as the unloading went on when our troops returned.

The Marine stenciled his name on the back of the sheath, and also wrote his initials \'H.B.B.\'.

This Marine Raider stiletto measures 12 5/16\" overall. The blade itself measures 7 1/8\". See page 86 of Mike Silvey\'s book Knives of the United States Military -- World War II for a photo of the Raider stiletto.

This Raider knife has clear blade etches.

CONDITION:

This knife has experienced the usually seen deterioration of its handle. This knife has high collectible value however--the perfect blade etch and ID\'d sheath make it desirable. Too, some collectors who have an extensive collection like to have a knife in their collection like this that they can show/compare what happens to the Marine Raider stiletto\'s handle over time.***International Customers: Shipping can seem high on certain items, because tracking and insurance (required for higher cost items) is expensive when shipping internationally.
