One of the most sought after knives made for the US Navy during WW2 were made by the Batteryless Telephone Equipment Company. While this company is better known for making communication devices for diving equipment, they also made knives which are sought after by collectors. The example is in its original used unrestored condition. The brass scabbard is clearly stamped and still retains the old leather strap. The blade does feature some surface rust in spots. The brass end near the handle is broken off causing the wood handle to be a little loose. This is the first BTE knife we have had the pleasure to offer at auction. Please refer to detailed photos for additional information.
