    Picked up this way cool "Corpsman's knife" at an auction yesterday. Very happy to be the new caretaker of this historic, near mint item. This USMC issued bolo style knife was intended to clear jungle obstructions as well as cut small trees for litters or stretchers in the Pacific theater.

      scottvez, This thing is actually quite badass and does have very cool look. Knife is almost 2 1/2 lbs.!
      You collect some very interesting material! Do you have any "sideshow"/carnival type material?

      Thanks akrodog.

      I have many sideshow/ circus/ carnival related photographs-- many from the 19th century.
