- Lot Description
12" tapered single-edged, spear point blade, 1.65" at widest point and 1.40" at ricasso. 4.6875" hilt with 3.25" crossguard and turned wood grip with 8 grooves. Steel pommel cap. Etched panel on reverse of blade reads: HOSPITAL CORPS / U.S. ARMY. Panel measures approximately 4.75" long, tapering from about .96" wide closer to the blade to about .92" closer to the hilt. Knife is accompanied by the correct Type II brass mounted leather scabbard that is appropriately marked ROCK ISLAND / ARSENAL with H.E.K. and W.T.G. inspection marks.
Very good. Blade retains much original polish with scattered surface discoloration and minor surface oxidation. Most of the etched panel remains crisp and clear with only some minor loss. Grip good with handling marks. Scabbard very good with clear marks and only some minor crazing and light wear.Condition
