WW2 Home Guard Auxiliary Units, Fighting Knife.

In very nice condition with the long clipped Bowie back edge has minimal staining and some minor sharpening to the cutting edge. Blade has a nice clear ''I cut my way'' Motto above a clear William Rodgers makers detail. The cast cross guard is a rather substantial one compared to other example with the two slab jigged bone scales to the hilt without chips or cracks and held in place with three small rivets. Handle does appear to have been varnished at some point. The leather scabbard has had good use with a tiny hole to the bottom where the blade point has poked through, seams are tight, leather is supple enough and the top period fastening button works fine. Scabbard is stamped ''Made in England'' and has a blank inked name and a couple of number to the back. Sorry but hard to make out. A nice commercially produced period knife and a model that has some evidence of being used by Early Auxiliary units during WW2. This one was found last week during a local house clearance in the Newport area of South Wales.
