The Trench Knife that your inner child wants and needs with a original inlaid

M1942 FROGSKIN ORIGINAL FABRIC MK1 SAP" MOD 2
I up-cycled a damaged Original 1942 Frogskin Poncho from the Pacific Theatre.
There were holes, rips. tears, etc. so don't lose your shit thinking we cut up a museum piece.
I purposely picked one that was pretty damaged yet had some serviceable fabric left to give it a second life as an heirloom item that can be passed down. Each Mk1 has been constructed with an original piece of this poncho fabric.
Investment casted for that old world charm. Complete with cast marks and all the beautiful imperfections. I went back to the drawing board and made some tiny design choices to improve this beloved model. They are a little shorter/sleeker and yet still designed to accommodate larger hands than the original WW1 Handles from a 100 years ago.
As always Les George has come through with his half of the collaboration with his high quality S35-VN blade. These are Grail Knives for your collection and they will not disappoint.
These Trench Knives will feature a V2 Handle with cut down guards and a French ricasso design Blade. This is completely made in the USA.
Comes with a Full kit Brown M1942 Junge Frogskin inlaid Chattanooga Leather Works scabbard.
