USMC CHATTILLON BOLO KNIFE WITH BOYT SCABBARD

Description

USMC CHATTILLON BOLO KNIFE WITH BOYT SCABBARD. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
UP FOR BID IS THE AFORE MENTIONED BOLO KNIFE BELIEVED TO BE WW II VINTAGE.  I'VE BEEN COLLECTING WW II KNIVES, BAYONETS AND OTHER MILITARY GEAR FOR THE PAST45 PLUS YEARS.
SINCE MY SONS HAVE NO INTERET IN MY COLLECTIION, AT 75, I'VE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO SELL-OFF THIS COLLECTION TO THOSE WHO WOULD APPECIATE IT.   I'VE BEEN AN EBAY SELLER AND BUYER AND AQUIRED THIS AND OTHER ITEMS THAT WILL COME UP FOR BID.
THIS KNIFE (SMALL MACHETTE) AND SCABBARD ARE IN REMARKABLY GOOD CONDITION. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS THE KNIFE HAS ONE SIDE MISSING A PIECE OF THE WOODEN POMMEL. THE USMC MARKINGS ARE FADED AS WELL AS THE MAKERS MARK.  BUT YOU CAN SEE THE LAST 2 LETTERS AS BEING AND "ON" AND "N.Y."THE ONLY COMPANY I COULD FIND THAT MADE IS TYPE OF KNIFE WAS PRODUCE IN CHATTILLON, NY. THE KNIFE IT SELF IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH NO EXTERNAL SHARPING.
THE SCABBBARD IS A BOYD MADE SCABBARD AND SHOWS A GOOD DEAL OF WEAR BUT STILL VERY FUNCTIONAL AND SECURE.  THE KNIFE FITS SNUGGLY INTO IT AND THE RIVETTED KNECK PIECE IS STILL INTAKE AND SHOWS ITS RIVETS.  THE BELT LOOP IS IN GOOD CONDITION AS WEEL AS THE LEG TIE GROMMET.
A GREAT DEAL FOR A TRUE COLLECTOR.
